Need to muster up the strength to leave

My job situation is tough, with the split I'm not sure I'd be able to keep my job. My parents and siblings would likely have a hard time accepting the abortion and may not be helpful if that comes to light.

Even though you were forced?

She called me up, we made a plan, I went and got her. When he called screaming on the phone at me to put my sister on or he'd burn down my house, I calmly told him if I see him anywhere near my house or my sister I would kill him. And I meant every word I said. I am not afraid to go to prison to protect my sister. I doubt a jury would convict me and if they did, so be it.

Haven't heard a peep out of him since. She's here, safe, we fully support her no matter what. She's a mess. Shakes like she's shivering. I don't care what she needs, don't care about costs, she is NEVER going back to that feral animal.

Leave girl. Now. Before you lose any nerve you may have. Make sure wherever you go there is someone there to protect you and get you through this,

Do it now !

You are awesome.

OP- you must make a plan to leave now. Call the hotline at Doorways for Women and Families. They will help you. 703-227-0881

You may be surprised at how wonderful everybody is.

I'm so sorry he pressured you into getting an abortion! It's exhausting living with someone you're terrified of. Is there someone who can help you get away from your husband? Maybe a friend or social worker. You sound really concerned about your child's safety. I don't blame you!
About the abortion... try to forgive yourself. It's gonna eat away at you until you get some closure from that.
Hang in there! Do what's best for your child

Let's not be silly. She still chose to do it. Even though she was pressured. I don't blame her at all. But it was her choice, she wasn't physically forced.

I am deeply sorry for all you have endured from that monster OP.

And statistically a woman is in the most danger during the time that she actually leaves her husband.

Make a plan stat. Save money secretly if you have to. Enlist the assistance of relatives & close friends, if possible.

Or you may need to research resources in your immediate area for shelter & food.

Regardless, you have to leave.
Because if you stay, this toxic + volatile situation won't end well at all.

And when a young child is involved you just cannot be complacent.

Good luck to both you as well as your precious child.

The best is yet to come!
