The kids are being abused by being in that environment just like you are. You are obviously a wonderful mother and amazing person. He is being awful to you not only physically but mentally as well. Your children will pick up on that behavior and will accept that is what life is like and have that in their own lives. There are shelters and people who will help you, reach out. You are not alone and you most certainly do not have to stand for another second of this abuse.
Prayers and Blessings to you. Keep posting, you are not alone!
