I am so very sorry. Please know that I will be keeping you and your daughter in my prayers, and praying for a safe solution for all of you. Know that you do not suffer alone, and there are people out there willing to help in any way they can, even if it is just to listen. I am also available by chat, just look me up any time. Stay safe.

Never, if this comes off cold and unemotional please forgive me. I'm going to take the approach I take at work. First and foremost is to find a safe place for both you and your daughter. Second, you need to sit down with your daughter and explained what happened and why "Daddy" got in trouble. Third, you need to get as far away from him as possible. It's be documented thousands of times that if a women gets abused once, it will continue until the situation is changed, usually by the aggressor going to jail. Please seek out help, both for you and your daughter. Visit a councilor, a close friend, a parent, or a stranger that will listen. There is a "mental" condition called Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It's when something bad happens and the brain walls off the memories to protect the person. The only problems is that you will have flashbacks, reoccurring memories, and other problems that will affect your ability to be a parent. I've dealt with others that have been in your situation through my job. I tell them the exact same advice. I know it will be hard, but it's worse if you stay for your daughters sake. If you every need to talk, look me up on Yahoo, I will make sure it's posted in my profile.

Don't forget that your daughter doesn't blame you, she just doesn't understand. If you make the right choice for you it will carry over to her. Being alone can be overwhelming but, in order to be great you must overcome great adversity. I wish you the best.

Well he pleaded not guilty in court yesterday, and now we go to trial. This is such bs. Now my poor daughter has to get up there and testify, she was the only witness. I'm going crazy. I can't sleep, relax, think, i feel like a zombie.

please just dont have a glass of wine. Go for a walk and talk to someone close, i hope all works out well. I understand the feeling ona different kind of way and I have read your posts. This is the time to take charge and not sit back and relax with a drink. Stand up and be proud for yourself and your daughter and shine in court. The judge will see it and award you full custody, and make that a-hole pay
