I need to do my test cos i think life wud b easier wiv q car, jus bein able to stick th kids in th bak n drive anywhere lol
Hi kirstybellx
You are doing great. Of COURSE it is hard when you see him, you have spent years being controlled and it is a massive step to break free. You should feel very proud of yourself and your strength! He has shown his true colours now and keep that in mind the next time he tries it on with you.
Good luck with the house and just remember, if not this one then another one? I am so glad you have your sister and friend and WOW what a big achievement it will be to set up a new home for you and the children.
You have lots of support here too 
I couldnt imagine not having a car, but yes it is very expensive although my friend and I share the costs so its not too bad really xxx
