Re: can abusive marriages have happy endings
You are actually helping your child by taking yourself out of the abusive situation, your abusive husband’s behavior was sooner or later going to start impacting the emotional well-being of your child. You and your child are safer away and both deserve to be in a peaceful home. You are entitled to happiness too, if you are not at peace then how can your child be…
I don’t know how to answer your questions because I really don’t know but I think staying and having hope for change while the abuse is going on is not very helpful, also I think situations like these don’t change without an intervention, and sincere effort. The other party needs to show they are willing to change, and take responsibility towards making it happen. False promises of change and apologies with no effort, do nothing…after he shows he is a responsible man and you feel like he deserves a second change you need to be able to put up personal boundaries and be strong to not let your guard down easily.
Pray Allah guide you in making a decision that is best for both you and your child.
