There are resources for battered women including anonymous shelters, legal help with property or children etc. Why? Why put up with abuse of any kind? What are you doing about your situation now?

Brian, with all due respect to you and your opinion, you really can't judge the "why" women remain. Please try to understand it's so much deeper than the black and white "kill him, get help, just leave." Many women eventually do...but the thought processes that take them to that point are something that can't possibly be understood unless you've gone through it.
It's such a complex thing that I can't even begin to make sense of it myself, much less break it down in a post.
