Is this for real? Why is he still breathing? I'm not sure which one of you is more rediculous. Him for getting drunk and punching you in the head 30 times...or you for still being with him. Hello! And your thinking of giving him another chance? Never mind...I think you win.
But yes, I agree with fiddlekitten that there are self-esteem issues to think about (fiddlekitten, hope that's an ok synopsis) ...
Aye.. *nodding* getting away from an abusive relationship is only half the battle. The other half is finding out what inside you lets people walk on you, and preventing it in the future.
How much respect do you think your sons going to have for women when he grows up, seeing you being someones punching bag and trading in his well being for a man, lord lady...hes supposed to be your number 1.
To answer your question, no, he will not change. This cycle will continue as long as you allow it to and it will escalate. You will end up dead or disabled if you don't get out of this abusive relationship.
You have to think of your child and get out of there. You won't be any good to your child dead or disabled and then your child will be this guy's punching bag. Do you really want that for your child? Do you want your child to grow up thinking abuse is part of a normal relationship? Do you want to turn your child into another abuser? If you stay, that is what you will be doing.
If you don't have guts enough to leave this guy for yourself, you should at least care enough about your child to get him/her out of this destructive and harmful environment.
No he will not change. Get out and away as soon as you can. Use community resources that are available to help, women's shelter, whatever. The cops say it best, "You're alive this time but next time we come you aren't going to be so lucky."
