me and my wife recently seperated. we have had our up and downs throughout the course of the last 4 years but we do love eachother very much. i have helped raise my son(step-son) for 6 years and we have a 5 yearold daughter. she bagan to drink alot and i became conscerned about her. i tried to talk to her parents about getting her help and they wouldnt beleive me or help even after i showed them proof and empty bottles. well i threatened to leave and file if she didnt straighten up and she became extremely angry with me. one night she attacked me in front of my children and i called the police. they carried her to her parents and the next day they have a lawyer. she has since not come to reality about the whole thing and her parents are pushing her to get a divorce even though i think she wants to work it out. let me include that the thing that has torn our marriege apart is the fact that she works for her parents. her hours are 9am-7pm 6 days a week. they have provided and spoiled her for the whole 29 years of her life and still do. she has allways taken her mothers advice over mine and her mother has done things in the past to make my wife think that she is the only one she can count on. i think my wife is scared to go against her parents and work thingsout with us. also we now have 10 grand in lawyer fee's now that all this is going on. the children say the miss me at home and that they wish i would come back. also now that we are seperated i still do everything i used to do with the exception of sleep in the same bed as her. is there anything i can do to turn the tables?
