I want to leave my husband, he is a compulsive liar he steals from me and my children. He has threatened me and been abusive, I don't have any family as I moved to another country to be with him, I don't have anybody to turn to and want to know what the first steps are, I'm a stay at home mum so don't have much money and my name is on the mortgage but I could nt afford to pay on my own. We sleap in separate bedrooms and he has made it quite clear he's not going to go or let me leave.

You will have to take the children to a Womens' Shelter Amanda. There you will receive the support and guidance you need, plus food.

Then you file a restraining order against your husband, citing his abusive ways and then you find a divorce lawyer.

I know it all sounds daunting, but you have to start somewhere and getting out of the house with your kids is the first step.

I don't know what country you are in, or what services are available to you.

It would help to know where you are.

Jake, country does matter yes, but if she needs to get out of an abusive relationship with her children, then in any country worldwide there are Red Cross Womens' and YMCA shelters to access and if she has a computer then she can find them to go to.
