Thanks billiechic and tugofwar
My X is in the not acknowledged the abuse and is not making honest efforts to change category. CAS closed the case for me with no concerns, but wants to keep open for him. They are tagging him as an absent father and that he doesn`t know any better.
I`m seeking help to heal and to be a better parent. My children are also seeking different type of help. I do understand the importance of a father figure. Boys have experience verbal, emotional and corporate punishment. My 4 yr old, has experience `hitting on tummy`. When will it be too much? I don`t know what else I can do.
