I need out. I'm being treated for PTSD from emotional trauma (years of severe passive aggressive behaviors toward me and our son). He's getting help, but it's so slow and he can't see the dr's enough with his schedule lately... he's backsliding.
I have been patient. We're military, so we've moved around a lot... so guess what? My support is all 1000km away. And I heard provincial law would consider it kidnapping if he doesn't agree to let me take the kids when I leave. Is this right? Can an abuser (not leaving bruises, it's all emotional trauma on me, and neglect of the kids in the past) keep me from going to a safe place with my 2 kids while I do my PTSD treatment? He acts like he doesn't want them right up until I want to leave... then he pulls us all back. It's so not fair.
He is working to change, but I don't think it's possible, he's so damaged... and he's not bringing up the possibility that the real abuse against him was from his "infallible" parents.
I can't speak to a lawyer just yet... any comments?
