I am sorry that you and your children had to go through all this. As a father myself I could never imagine doing this to my children or my partner. Do we parents have those moments of yelling, of course, but with emotional and verbal abuse you hurt the spirit, and that damage can last longer than a bruise.

I've said this before, I'm really happy that you and your children are now free of this. Hopefully you all can heal and look forward to better days. {{hugs}}
