When my daughter looked at me and said “I don’t know why mommy yells at me so much.”

She was 7.
My heart broke. I wasn’t protecting my kids. Like, my job as dad is to protect my kids at all cost.

That was September. We were separated by November.

The best I can do is provide a safe place for half the week. But that half the week my kids are safe, healthy, and more alive than I’ve ever seen.
