To have a home


My family consists of a father, mother and 5 kids. I always thought thay having a complete family is way better than having separated parents but I was proven wrong. I met my husband when I was in college and like any guy, he made me feel like I can depend on him no matter what. When I got pregnant, he never left me though we're not married yet. He did what a father should do that time. He provided for us though I also work part time to help out. After 5 years, before I got pregnant to my 2nd child, he showed signs of gambling addiction. I never thought that it was serious until I delivered my 2nd child. He left me at the clinic saying that he would just get some money to pay. 24 hours had passed, he never showed up and left me with no food or water to eat. i was breastfeeding my child then but I had not eaten anything for 24 hours. I felt frustrated but decided to just let it go and just focus on my new born I had to take a 2-month leave ro recuperate so no income for me and depended again on him but I realized that his financial support was getting lesser and lesser. I didn't mind and just thought that maybe I need to step up and help him more so I worked on getting promoted and became a supervisor. I thought there would be less financial issues since both of us were earning. It just got worst He decided not to work anymore so he had no regular pay anymore. Me being optimistic thought that maybe he just needed time to get back to work. However, 8 years had passed but he never got a job anymore. Now, we're living at his father's house so I was able to manage my salary to make sure to cover expenses especially we already have 5 kids. You may ask what the problem is if we could get by with my current salary though my husband got no income. What I forgot to mention is his gambling addiction got worst. He started and constantly verbally absue me when I could not give him money. He always told me to get out of his place because he knew i had nowhere to go. He even said that I should be paying rent forstaying at his father's house though I was the one paying for all necessary things for our home. I felt imprisoned. Worst is I felt sorry for my kids that they hear and see those arguments. Here I am asking for help to get me and my kids a home, peaceful home.
