Just to let ya'll know how hard this sort of thing is...
G***** said grace at supper tonight and the last thing she said before her amen was... "God, make my Mommy and Daddy stop fighting, please."
Now you feel my angst.
Maybe it's like Garth Brooks song -- "Unanswered Prayers".
Gnite.

As an adult, sometimes we have to choose what our children need long-term, even if it upsets them short-term. Abused children don't always understand that they're being abused, because they have no frame of reference. They realize it later, though, and they will blame the parent who stood by and didn't act to save them. I know, I've been there. And apparently, so have you and your sister.
I am very sorry you're going through this, but you're the only adult in your household. If you don't save your children from this, no one will.
