Just went thru this with my daughter. I am crying for you!!!!
Could be different in your state.
(1) Get PICTURES!!!!! Very, Very Important for now and later court dates!!!!
And all text messages. LOCK THEM on your phone.
(2) File a protection order. Strangulation is a felony, keep in mind that!
(3)Call your local WOMENS ADVOCATE CENTER
They will get you a free lawyer, housing and they will walk you thru it all
They will go to court with you, so your not alone.
They will teach you safety plans
They will give you free counseling
They will work with the law to protect you & your girls
(4) Time to break away from your mom. Does she want to be the next one to
buy you some fresh flowers? Domestic Violence does not stop, until your dead.
It is progressive just like alcoholism...
(5) Do yourself a favor & go file a report now!! Dont wait until tomorrow!!!
They will look at how long it took you to file a report...
(6) There are great support groups online & even on facebook for Domestic Abuse!
(7) Keep your phone charged, hide it in your bra
(8) CALL THE POLICE!!!
Your kids will respect you more and you will be alive
someday to tell them the truth.......
