Dear Queenie,
My boyfriend and I have been together for more than 7 years and we have 2 children together, but he has cheated on me, does drugs, can’t keep a job and sometimes he gets abusive and he even got arrested for it one time.
I only stay with him for the kids’ sake, but I’m not sure that is the best thing to do.
Queenie, what do you advise?—Unhappy mother
Dear Unhappy mother,
Staying in a relationship like this “for the kids’ sake” is not the best thing for you to do, for the children or for yourself. I advise you to break up with this man as soon as you can find a way to do so safely.
