Best way not to come to work with a black eye again is to report the violence to the authorities. If you want to keep the actual work schedule, you must ask yourself if your spouse is upset because he doesn't know your work schedule.
Establish safe residency elsewhere & JUST GO. You may want a police escort outta there just to be on the safe side, but, better safe than sorry -or worse.
TAKE IT WHERE EVER U GO OR LOCK IT IN A SAFE
The general answer is yes, the spouse of a felon can owna gun as long as the felon has no access to it.
"A wife," quipped the first answerer. Seriously though: You and your spouse will both need lawyers to represent you, and there will be papers to sign. If there is no prenup (pre-nuptual documents signed) then it may be more difficult a process to get through. Look for reputable divorce lawyers for your area. It is very difficult to declare your desire to end your marriage without your spouse being very hurt and upset, but that doesn't mean you can't ask nicely. If your spouse is not violent or abusive toward you, ask your spouse to sit down with you with a mediator present and gently say that you feel that your marriage is not working out and that you feel divorce is the solution. From there, questions about legal arrangements, division of property, prenups, and custody of children (if any) or pets (if any) will arise. Keep your cool. But if your spouse is violent or abusive toward you (and/or any children), you'll need to avail yourself of community resources for abused spouses and domestic violence, and you may need to stay for awhile in a shelter and look to law enforcement to remain safe and keep your children safe if there are children.
If you mean legally, then I would imagine it would depend on if you had children with the drug using spouse. If you do, it would be best to notify the police or contact an attorney. You have a responsibility to keep the children safe, and keeping them in a place where one parent is using drugs is not safe. If not, then all you would have to do is pack and leave.
No. You must be at least 16 to get emancipated. In this situation you should find help through social services so that they can keep you safe.
Not without a court order. Contact social services if you do not feel safe at home.
It's not ever really safe to assume an abusive man wont bother you. They're abusive, that's what they do. The only reason they would stop abusing you is if there were no longer a pay off, or they found someone new to abuse.
The key to the problem is your sister and until she realizes that she is in an abusive relationship there is not much you can do. Of course you love your sister, but the best thing you can do is to say nothing and know she has to learn the hard way. This is certainly a difficult task for you as you want to keep her safe and see her happy, but your sister has to see that in herself first.
"When can you let your guard down and feel safe after leaving an abusive relationship?" It varies for everyone. But in my case when the abuser has decided to leave me alone and move on. I believe letting your guard down requires you to understand the reasons why you got into an abusive relationship in the first place so that you can protect yourself in the future. There are steps to take that will keep you safe, (both physically and emotionaly), that you are responsible for learning and implimenting. When you research the ways to avoid and stop abuse, you will see the things you did to invite and tolorate the abuse. When you are clear about what you did, and the things nessesary to protect yourself now that you are out, you will feel much safer.
keep safe from changes
Most abusive relationships start off pleasant and you think you are in love, but then everything goes down hill when you get use to the person. Not all abusive relationships are from the guys or the girls so be careful and safe!
