My friend is scared to do this so I am doing it for her. She has been married to this guy for 8 years, he is so controling. And makes her think very negative of herself. He won't let her leave the house, keeps her on lock down everyday. He won't even let her go to her own mothers house with out him. She wants to leave him but is scared to. He tells her that if she leaves she can't come back into their house and he will report the car stolen. Both vehicles are in his name but they purchased them when they were married. The deed to their trailor has both of their names on it. He also threatens her that she wont have her kids and she isnt gettin anything out of the house including her personal belongings. I have tried telling her that he cant keep her out of the house till it is settled through court. She don't want to get into trouble and really doesnt want to lose her kids. She is the one that takes care of them day in and day out. She feeds them, gives them baths and puts them to bed he doesnt help at all. IS there anyone out there that could give her some advice on here so she will know what she can and can't do and maybe gain some courage to leave him. with out feeling like she cant have better and wont lose everything. Thanks!

She is the only one who can take action. If she is being physically and emotionally abused by the husband, she needs to contact the police's domestic abuse division of the town she lives at to file a complaint. Domestic abuse is a crime and must be reported.
he doesnt physically abuse her just brainwashes her makes her think there isnt anything better and that she is a piece of crap. Wont let her go anywhere or have any friends..tells her if she goes somewhere not to come back. When we hang out its for a very short period of time and we have to sneak and I am her best friend. She just wants to know what he can do to her or cant do. She dont want to lose everything or her kids.

She needs to hire an attorney to help her file for a divorce and to help her with the custody of her kids then. Good luck!
