How This Mother Moved Out Of Abusive Marriage At 40 To Show Daughter How Women Deserve Respect

by IForHer Team

“The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.” ~ Ernest Hemingway 

As they say, hard times prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny. It is during the hard times when the hero within us is revealed. The story of this single mother fighting against an abusive husband to create a better life for her kids is just a testament to it.  Her inspiring story captures her courage of moving out of an abusive marriage at age of 40, for a better life for her kids.

While speaking about her movement out of abusive marriage with HOB, she mentioned:

“At 40, I decided I’d rather be a single mom than continue being in an abusive marriage; I walked away after thirteen years. I stayed in the marriage for my son–he’s partially deaf and can’t speak. But I’d to leave for my daughter; my husband was abusive and if I stayed, I’d be conditioning my daughter to normalize abuse. That was the last thing I wanted; I wanted her to live a life of dignity, to be independent.

I moved out of my husband’s house. Thankfully I’d always worked–I earned my living through direct selling and had flexible working hours.

But my daughter was barely two and my son required special attention, I’d to fend for all three of us. The separation had pressed the ‘restart’ button of my life, but I looked at it as a challenge.�

It was her determination and dedication that kept pushing her during the tough times. 

“The first year was hard. Between cooking, dropping and picking up my son from school, tending to my daughter, and working– I barely slept. Whenever I’d to attend conferences or trainings, my daughter and her art kit accompanied me.

Within a few months, I decided to become a motivational speaker– I’d been conducting training sessions for years and I felt ready to share my experiences to help others.

My workload naturally increased, but I made sure I prioritised my children–I’ve never missed an annual show or PTM. And they’re such good kids. Whenever I come back from a tour, they had cute surprises planned for me. This time on my birthday, they ordered a cake and made a card!

And they keep making me proud– whether it’s my son participating in school quizzes or my daughter winning dance competitions. But honestly, it’s when I see them working as a team that my heart swells with pride–be it my son teaching his sister or her being patient with him. Oh and you should see them on vacations– they’re always ganging up on me.”

In the end, this brave mother shares how she has a strong belief that her cute little family be okay.

“It’s December now, which means all three of us are busy filling our goal sheet, a practise we follow every year. I remember 5 years I’d written in my goal sheet, ‘Stand up for yourself. Give your kids a better life.’ And when I see our small family of 3, sharing a tub of ice cream and battling it out over a game of chess; happy and complete, I know I did the right thing. We’re going to be okay.”

At IFORHER, we wish her all the luck and hope her inspiring story will give courage and hope to many more. Especially to those who are trying hard to step out of the abusive marriage, but couldn’t because of their kids.
