I'm divorced. I'm sorry to hear your husband is abusive. We are all here for you if you need to talk. You and your daughter will get through this. When abuse is an issues (either physical or emotional), I don't think that's a good environment for your daughter or you. You both deserve better - no one deserves to be abused.
Here's my story; My ex-husaband walked out when my daughter was 4 weeks old. We planned the pregnancy, but when she was 4 weeks, he came home and said "are you ready to be a single parent?" and my response was "I'll do what I have to do". That was the end of that and the divorce was final less than 2 months later. He has been in and out of my daughters life numerous times (he keeps moving back and forth from Florida to Michigan). He has broken her heart several times, which I find unforgiveable. Currently he is here and this is the longest he's ever been around. He's a nice guy, although very irresponsible (financially and in life in general) and doesn't have a clue how to be a father. He's a fun friend for her, but he has no clue how his actions and the things he says effects her. I have explained to her that her dad has a hard time staying in one place and to accept him for who he is and enjoy the time she does have with him.
