I just received an email and it ripped my heart out because the writer is one of so many stay at home moms that are being held hostage by their husbands. The gist of her story is that she and her abusive husband have three children. He is absent most of the time and when he is at home, he is constantly yelling and complaining. The children often go to bed crying. The father curses and demeans the children and his wife. She can only get money for groceries if she asks him for it in front of company. He yells, throws things and will not allow her to go back to work. All of the money that he earns goes into his private account and she has no access to that account. The verbal and emotional abuse is getting so bad that she knows she wants a divorce but does not know how she could pay for one. Her closing was asking me for help. I will do the best that I can for her. My concern is that he may have access to her computer and that worries me. Please keep her in your thoughts.
