 The abuse continued emotionally, physically. It kind of got worse as we moved on. After I had my kids and I saw my husband and I saw who he was as a father, I knew that that's what I wanted for my children. Because the problem was that when he was sober, he was a good man. When he was sober, it was when he was drunk. It was like he had anger. With the continuous use of alcohol, it affected the way I carried myself with my family. It affected how much time I was drinking and smoking and gambling. And I was neglecting my wife, I was neglecting my children. And as I was drinking, they were worrying about me, whether I was going to come home, whether I was going to get in an accident, whether I was going to be in jail.
