What do you do when a family member accuses you of abuse but actually its the other way around. And no matter who you talk to it is a totall waist of time because you have a bad tracct record for things that you have done in the past. But not only are you suffering but your children are suffering also.

Jodiann,

If your children are in any way abused I incourage you to get them out of this situation. Some people do look back on the past, but as I see it the future is more important. It's good not to forget the past, but just don't dwell on it. We all make mistakes, and learn by them. If I were you I would get you, and the children in counceling, right away. If your living in an abusive home, you need to get out. This isn't good at all for your children. People that are abusive, tend to come from an abusive home, Not all, but most. I wish you all the luck in the world, and remember it's your respos. to get these children, and you out of this disfuctional home. I wish you luck, and if you need to talk, feel free to email me at jricha24@bellsouth.net
