I really need refuge my son and i. Struggling really bad. Never seen or liver in a great environment, I am married and my husband is mentally,financially,emotionally, and verbally abusive and sometimes sexually.Just need to get away to a safe haven!No shelters please been through a lot! JUST NEED REST, MY 10 YEAR OLD SON AND I!
A shelter would be the place to go. Don't know why you would be against them. There are people that will help you--usually women. Don't know where you are, but there has to be someone --perhaps check the phone book in your area for anything to do women or shelters and you should find something. Even call the police--they will be aware of such. Good luck and remember--LEAVING an abusive mate is the most dangerous time! Get a plan (secretly) and let those that are into helping the abused help you and your son. A 10 year old doesn't need to put up with an abusive parent.
