My Husband and His Dad Kicked Us Out

United States
January 28, 2009 9:51pm CST
Yes you heard me right! The loser and his dad kicked me and my baby out the house. Some of my mylotter friends already know I've been having serious problems in my marriage. I spent a night in the hospital Saturday night and left Sunday coz I was feeling really weak and dizzy so they kept me over night. Can you believe that he didn't want to come and see me in the hospital? He said he had to go to church the next day and he would be sleepy in church if he spent any time with me in the hospital. But he did drop by for 5 minutes to bring me some clothes and some food, but he didn't even want to do that. WHAT! That's a bunch of crap huh? And if that wasn't bad enough, he didn't even call me all day Sunday to check on me, and when I was released on Sunday night, my dad came to get me coz I was still weak and sick. OK I spent a night over my parents house coz I haven't heard from my husband all day, my baby was with my parents the whole time coz my husband had to work and he didn't pick her up or go see her or buy her any medicine for her fever and cold. Alright here's the juicy part. The next day around 10am me and my daughter was getting ready to go home, which is walking distance, then my husband knocked on the door after him and his dad finished stacking most of my stuff on my parents porch. And guess what else? When I walked over there I seen his dad changing the lock on the front door to make sure I can't get back in. I even had to call the police to get in to get the rest of me and my baby's stuff. Ain't that a crime shame? And he's NOT gonna help support the baby anymore coz he's mad at me. His dad told him to do all this coz he hates me. He hates me coz I wouldn't go to his son's church and he didn't want me to visit my parents. His dad controls him all the time and he does whatever his dad says. His dad helped take his first baby from him and now he wants to take my baby away from me, which isn't gonna happen. It hurts really bad coz we had good times for a while until all heck broke loose and my baby will never have a dad. I believe in God and I know he'll help me through this, it's just so hard and painful. I also need a little encouragement from my friends here. Thanks a lot, God bless you.

How in the world did you ever get yourself involved with a zoomdweebee like this?? Get away from him ASAP and don't look back!!! Learn from this and never get into a relationship with a loser like this again!! Learn from how hard it is and all the pain he caused you. His family is obviously real winners too!

I am so sorry that you have to go through this crap. First thing you have to do is get a temporary order for support so that you can get some financial support for your daughter. The second thing you have to do, and I know it's going to break your heart, is to find a GOOD lawyer and file for divorce. Your husband abandoned you and put your stuff on your parents' porch, he rejected you and your daughter and kicked you out. You will be able to get child support and possibly "spousal maintenance" which used to be called alimony--if his income is enough. Start applying for every state support program that you qualify for. It will help your case in divorce court. I've been through a divorce, I know how nasty it can get and no matter how much you might love him right now, you have to think of getting as much money as possible to live on for the sake of your daughter and your future. I'm so sorry that this happened, sweetie. Why did you go to the hospital? I'll be praying for you tonight.

I really and truly wish you lived in my state, I have a 3 bedroom house that has plenty of room for you and your daughter. At least you have your parents close to you, and a place you can live till all this is taken care of. Don't hesitate to take advantage of food stamps and other public programs. We all pay taxes for these and you and your daughter deserve that money in the form of food stamps or rent help. Take advantage of all the programs available, please. I'm glad to pay taxes for you and your daughter and all those like you who are betrayed by deadbeats like your husband and his father. I will be praying for you. Register for temporary service agencies to show the courts that you are trying to support yourself. I'm so sorry that this happened. I hope his manhood falls off and his father suffers the same fate. Any church that advocates such a marital division isn't a church at all--God isn't like that. Blessings on you!

this is only my opinion, If you will live together with your husband and he is depending to his father all the time you will be having a problem, there are many cases that they are single parent without any support to their ex-husband but they still live happily. Staying in one roof with out understanding of the members, their might give a problem to your child, i guess the first thing you do is to face the problem but dont ever give your kid to your husband try your very best that even with out their support you can still stand alone. I hope it helps relieve your pain.

Thanks patzel88, and it does helps to hear that. I know I don't need him for anything, it just hurts coz I was so use to him, but I don't love him. I guess it's hard to believe that I'll ever find the right person, I don't want to go thru this again.

Heres news for your deadbeat husband: He can't just decide he isn't going to support your baby. All you've got to do is force him to pay child support thru the court system. I'm sure if you apply with Health and Welfare services they are going to find every way possible to make him pay up. I'm sorry for what you are going thru. But it sure sounds like its time to walk away from that one. Good luck.

Aw, miracle, don't think of it that way! He didn't throw you away, he's a mange-infested dog that couldn't stand the treatment (YOU) that would save him! He had to get away from the goodness you were providing and the easiest (laziest) way he could think of to do that was to push you away from him. Rats avoid the light, so do roaches. YOU are the light! Your husband is the rat, or roach...the scum, scurrying away from the light you provide. I know it hurts like hell right now but after the pain comes anger. After the anger comes the strength. That strength is there, right now, you just have to get through the pain and anger. You will, I know you will. For now, though, let that pain out! It's a very normal and natural part of the healing process. If you still feel like you've been thrown away, then think of it this way: He threw a beautiful, priceless diamond in the trash! How stupid can a human being be?

My goodness, Miracle, I am sorry this is happening to you. You are really having a hard time with these people, I know you are trying to keep your marriage together and to keep a father in your child's life, but this is ridiculous you have to put an end to this somewhere, this man you married doesn't seem to have a backbone, I just can't imagine a man putting his wife and baby out. He should leave first and go live with his father. What kind of religion they are in that will tolerate actions as this? I hope your parents are supporting you through this because you will need a lot of support and understanding to get through this. You are a strong woman and I know you will make it. My motto is You might get me down but not down so far that I can not come back up and when I start coming back up nothing is going to get in my way. It is going to take time Miracle but, you will look back on this one day and say to your self why did I take this for so long. [b] Take his a$$ to court.[/b]

Yes, he sounds like he is 2 cans short of being a six pack, what the heck is thinking with, he sounds like Blagojevich, he doesn't have a legal leg to stand on. He put you and your child out and he thinks a judge will approve of that. He lets his father runs his house and mind he thinks a judge will approve of that. Don't even worry about that honey, you just get your evidence together all of it. And off you go to court. .

I know you're feeling awful right now, miracle, but this may just be the best thing that could have happened to you! Your husband is showing his true colors right now and HE'S NO CHRISTIAN!!! How he could show is face in ANY church is beyond me! You're a tough cookie, miracle. You're going to get through this and you're going to be much stronger because of it! You're FREE from his tyranny now! You're free from the arguing, except when you see him in court! You do that right away, girl. Get that despicable so-and-so into court as fast as you can! He will need to pay alimony and child support. Don't let him off of this because you're "a nice person". YOU deserve his support and your baby CERTAINLY deserves support from her father, even if it's only monetary. Make sure your husband knows that he's screwed up big time! Make that man pay for that baby until she's 18 years old. Judges DESPISE deadbeat dads! They also despise men who abandon their wives... ESPECIALLY when they throw them out of their own home!!! I don't know how much money you make with your online things, but if it's not enough to support you and your daughter, you should go to Social Services right away and apply for whatever you can get. THEY will start the ball rolling with getting a Child Support Order for your daughter. But, no matter HOW much you make online, you are still entitled to alimony for at least 2 years. Don't let this animal off the hook! Get what you deserve! Well, you deserve a good husband who treats you and your daughter with love and dignity but your husband has proven that he can't handle that so, get him where it's going to hurt him... in the wallet! You're such a nice person and I can see you not wanting to go through the trouble, but you deserve this and your daughter deserves this! His doing this while you are sick is... well, I don't think there's a word for just how nasty that was! He sounds like he just wants to be "daddy's little boy" for his entire life. Well, "daddy's little boy" got married and had a baby! He has responsibilities! If he's unwilling to do the physical part of those responsibilities, make sure he takes the monetary responsibilities! If you need to know how to go about any of this, please let me know. I wasn't thrown out myself but I had to take my ex to court to get child support because I was forced to throw him out because of physical/emotional abuse and that's pretty much the same thing in any judge's eyes. Well, your case is WORSE than mine since he threw you out of your own home!!! Oh, man! Oh, man! I wish I lived near you because I'd give you a big, long hug. I'm sure you could use all the hugs you can get right now! Well, I'm sending you a virtual hug, okay? I want to take over as your "mother and mentor" and make sure you get all that you deserve from this despicable creature! I certainly hope you are getting better, physically! Take care of yourself right now because this isn't going to help you to get better physically! You need to take extra care. Make sure you get enough rest and eat properly, okay? Then, get yourself a good lawyer!!! Make sure that lawyer charges your husband for his fees, too! Believe me, judge's HATE men like your husband and you'll end up living much better than he is right now... you deserve it! Your husband needs to grow up and realize that he's a man... a man who has obligations and responsibilities... and his 'daddy' isn't going to be able to help him all his life! Yes, hold on to your belief in God, but also see a lawyer and make sure a judge screws your husband like he's screwed you and your daughter. If you don't want to do it for yourself, do it for your daughter!!! If you need anything, please let me know, okay? Even if it's just a shoulder to lean on, cry on, or anything else. I'm here for you! Take care and hang in there. You're strong, even if you don't feel it right now. You will get through this... better than ever! I promise!

You go ahead and cry, miracle! Cry all you need to! It's not good to hold that kind of pain inside. Believe me, I know from experience! Crying is our "relief valve", very similar to a pressure cooker. I know it sounds kinda weird comparing you to a piece of kitchen gadgetry, and you certainly don't LOOK like a pressure cooker! But, think about it... when too much pressure builds up inside a pressure cooker, their relief valve opens up and steam pours out. Crying is like that relief valve opening up. If you don't cry, you're going to explode! Well, not like a pressure cooker would (hopefully!) but something will break down inside you and you'll end up getting sicker! You need to let it out. I may not be there physically, but I'm there with you spiritually. I'm sitting right beside you with my arms around you to support you and give you comfort. Cry away! My shoulders are big enough. Remember always, WE ARE WOMEN, WE ARE STRONG! But, even we have to cry sometimes.

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about this. Though I don't know much about the problems you're having with your husband. I haven't been visiting mylot very often these days but I believe you are a strong woman and that's based on the past discussions you've shared here and I have read. I also think that your husband don't deserve you cause your strong and he's weak. He's a daddy's boy and not fitted to run a family like you deserve. I know you can do it without him. It's good that you still have your parents with you. And if your husband won't support your kid I know you're a good person and God will help you. Just pray and He will take all those problems away. Hope I made you feel better friend!

Hi dear. I am feeling very very bad after reading your stuff.He and his dad must be crazy.I think he is a heartless man and does not care for you and for your daughter. I do not know the reasons behind the break up of such strong and powerful relationship but i must confess that he has his heart made up of iron that is why he did not turn up to see you in the hospital. You must take some legal advice as soon as possible if you have decided on your part to separate your ways.I wish you very best for all your future endeavors.

You take him to court. He just have to. In the mean time, take control over your self, and make shore you and the babe are OK. If you can, try not to ingore the fact that he is the stupid one not YOU. You will be in my prayer

That's just so so wrong of your husband to do that.. Since u are his wife now, u should be his top priority as u are the one to grow old with him, and not his father.. ALso, your husband is old enough to know what he is doing, and why should he be listening to what his father ask him to do?? Dun he have a mind of his own, or is he just a coward, whom only knows how to bully the weak and helpless?? U should never give in to them.. Fight for your own rights and make them regret.. I believe god will only help those in need, but never cowards.. It seems that his prayers had taught him the wrong things..

Well what the heck is wrong with your husband? What did you ever do to him that would make him be so mad at you, that he has to go and change the locks on the house so you can't get in, or that he didn't even care you were in the hospital, or that he doesn't even want to support his own child? I think he listens to his dad too much, and it makes me wonder what he's been up to, to just quit loving you like that. Do you think that maybe he's seeing someone else, which I don't know why, from the way it sounds, he's a jerk, and now I know why his first relationship didn't work. I know you want to hear some encouragement, but all I can say is, that your probably better off without him, who wants to be with someone that doesn't love or care about you, I think if you stayed with him, you would just be unhappy and that wouldn't be good for your child. I will keep you in my prayers..Take care.

In the beginning I didn't realize that his dad controls his life the way he does. He dad tells him wrong and constantly steers him in the wrong direction, that's how he lost his first daughter. His dad convinced him to sign over his daughter to his cousin, which was on his dad's side.

That is a crying shame and both he and his dad seem like losers to me. Think of it like this: It sounds like it's all for the best and you and your baby can start a whole new life together. It will be hard, but, it sounds like your family is willing to help and that is very hopeful. What really gets me is the fact that your husband won't support the baby because he is angry with you??? Talk about immature!! Things will get better for you. It will be a hard road for awhile, but, it will get better. Believe me, you are far better off without that loser! If and when you decide to get involved with another man he will (hopefully) be a better father to your baby than the loser who fathered your child! I will be praying for you, sweetie! Hang in there.
