I am married & have 2 kids w/my husband; expecting a 3rd. Over the past couple of months, I have been going through some very harsh emotional stress caused by my husband. No physical abuse, just verbal/emotional abuse. He is the only person I have to look up to in the state of TN unfortunately. All of my relatives live in Chicago. I am so ready to pack up our clothes (mine & my kids) & drive to chicago for some time. The only thing holding me back is that he threatened me by telling me that he would go to the police & say he did not give me permission to take the kids out of state. I do not want to get in any kind of trouble. I need to know if there is such a law that would prohibit me from taking our kids out of state. He knows exactly where we will be staying, where my parents live, their phone#'s, & everything. I have put up with so much throughout the years & feel we both need some time to ourselves. I can not continue to live under the same roof with him, especially being 4 months pregnant.
