[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should take the baby and go stay with a friend or relative or in a hotel for tonight or however long you want.

Call a locksmith and have them install a lock on your bedroom and a bathroom you can use. Make your husband sleep on the couch if there is no guest room. Throw out all alcohol in the house.

Talk to a therapist. I would consider divorce.

And yes that was rape.[/quote]

Yes, do all this which is 100% illegal.  Clearly, you have never read marriage laws in this area.  As someone who contemplated divorce for four years and had an attorney on retainer I can tell you what you just posted isn't allowed - legally.[/quote]

It is absolutely not illegal for her to take her kids and stay elsewhere. She can’t sneak them out, not tell her husband where they are, and refuse to respond to his calls and messages. But she can absolutely say, “hey, I’m having a really hard time processing what happened last night and  I need some space, I’m going to take the kids to Larla’s house for the weekend”.

It’s also not illegal to make her husband sleep on the couch or through out the alcohol, obviously.

I’d advise against the locks. Impractical and expensive, in addition to maybe being of questionable legality. [/quote]
