Mrs. K and Children
Mrs. K is separated from her husband. She left her home due to a dangerous situation of abuse. She has 6 of her children with her at this time. For privacy reasons, the ages of her children are not being disclosed, but they are all under 12.
She has a home business and is working it to provide for her children, but she is also looking for any means possible that will allow her to have a job and stay home with her children while they need her there.
She is currently in a home and working on her home business.

“I would like to thank everyone who has helped me in the past when I first had to leave my home with my 6 children….It has been about a year since I had to walk away…It sure does not seem like it….I Realize now that I will not be going back to a man who chossen to never change.. I can only go forward now…

My Story by Mrs. K
As of 1-2012, I have been married 23 Years. I recently had to leave my home due to an abusive husband. I tried so hard to stay, but I could not take it any more. For years, I tried to stay strong, but I became very depressed, and was just surviving. A person can only take so much. I thought it was all my fault, and I kept thinking things would get better, but they only got worse.
My husband started being mean to me, making me repent about things I did not even do, but I did it to just keep peace, because it was a very sad time. I thought he wanted a modest wife, but I was wrong. He was in to all kind of porn, and he would tell the children that I would be better off dead and that it would be a better world. I pray that some day, I can help other women who are still caught in a snare of hurting from their abusive husbands, and to know that there is no way out. It was a hard choice to make for me, but A change had to take place.
I am writing this after having been away for just a month. I went through so much pain before I walked away, and sadly, the children are very glad I did. I had thought that staying for the children was the right thing to do, but now I see it was not right. Our children had to suffer as well. If he said something, that was the way it was. He gave me no hope, and he would tell me, I was in rebellion, and I would be better off dead, and if he could kill me, he would. It would make the world a better place he would say.
I enabled him for years to live as he did, by taking up for him and covering for him. I tried to stand up and say things, but he would get mean. He had this submission thing all wrong about the wife, and I was not real sure how it went either, so I let him do whatever.
I am never going back to an abusive man who is not willing to get help, and who thinks he is right about everything. How sad it is that so many wives suffer this way, It is a very lonely road, when a wife has to run from her home.

Thanks Susan…
How do I email you?
I’m new to this website. Someone from a Yahoo group I’m in posted the link. I’m sure I too might have some books that I thought we just had to have but never used. A homeschooling mommy of 5 accumulates stuff! Way too much stuff! I was also curious if you found a new place to live (you spoke about this back in March). Blessings.

Welcome!
We are a family-run website for single-parent homeschool families, mainly single home school moms. The moms we support are trying to find available work that will allow them to do this on their own, and we are trying to help them get on their feet as they gain their bearings. These moms are not only taking on the task of being a single parent, but also of keeping their children at home to learn.
You can read about these moms and their families on their own pages here on the site, and if you wish to support them, we encourage you to do that. Anything you give to them through their donate buttons will go directly to them.
If you have questions, please feel free to search our Directory
You can also get to know the Families currently supported on Gleaning the Harvest.
