Thank you so, so much for reaching out to me. I’m trying to take all of this in. This is really not easy and heartbreaking. Thank you for acknowledging what I’m going through. It helps to feel validated.

I only have one child. He will be starting kindergarten in August. I’m planning on going back to work part time. However, my husband wants me to work at a certain place and at certain hours he likes. He also wants to take my pay and pay off the debt he wants paid. My plan is to work part time, save what I can and pay what I can, and go. I’ve had several conversations with him and he won’t change. I’ve talked with my family as well and they are very upset with what is going on.
