My husband isn't treating me right

My husband and I have been together 13 yrs, we have kids from other relationships. His youngest has been off the rails since age of 15 and now at 25 just treats everyone like crap. He's moved back in with us, I have given him everything but when he's around my husband treats me really bad. He sits while his son tells me to Fu*k off and disrespects me all the time and he does or says nothing! As soon as his son starts kicking off y husband starts kicking off at me! He's abusive and says really nasty things and today he went to hit me! His son just laughs behind him! What should I do?

Leave him.

You should leave, quite obviously. He is edging ever closer to physical violence there is only one thing to do when violence is threatened or acted on. Leave

Leave

Stop allowing this and move out. Take whatever you can and get out.

Neither of them respect you. Time to get your ducks in a row and end this awful marriage.

Go to court and get an occupation order to allow you to remain in the home and make him and the son move out. Report the emotional and physical abuse to the police. Make sure you set up a private bank account and have you money go directly into it if you haven’t already. If you’re not working claim universal credit whilst you look for work. If you can’t remain in the home, go to all your local housing associations and local council and apply for a home. Tell them you are fleeing domestic abuse and are homeless, even if you haven’t left yet. Speak to a divorce lawyer and find out what you’re entitled to and set The wheels in motion for divorce once your housing situation is settled. I would urge you to contact women’s aid who will help you work out an exit strategy. Do not tell your husband you are ending the relationship as this is the most dangerous time for women. Tell your friends and family what is going on and allow them to support you. Also, read the book, “Why Does He Do That?” By Lundy Bancroft. Good luck.
