[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The posts on this thread are terrible.

OP, is this someone with whom you already have a relationship? How strong is your bond? Is this person facing a long sentence?

Lots of couples make it through this, but it isn’t easy. There will be long times without even phone calls, and visits are logistically challenging. Every facility has its own rules so make sure you understand them thoroughly and follow them to a t. [/quote]

He’s actually the father of my child. But it’s a day to day struggle and stressful. He hasn’t been sentenced yet and has no idea how much time he will have to do. The financial strain makes it even more complicated. It’s a lot[/quote]

As the child in this scenario I strongly advise you to leave him. My father has been out of prison since I was a baby for dealing drugs; my mother stayed married to him until I was nine- the last two years of which I was consistently encouraging her to divorce him. My mother is overall a well meaning and loving person but as an adult I still have a lot of resentment towards her for raising me in that situation, bringing me to visit him in prison, etc, which I still to this day can’t fully let go of and which has impacted our relationship to date.[/quote]
