From a stranger on the internet, you deserve better!

Consent always matters, it won’t matter if you implement boundaries now, a true partner and a healthy partner would accept them (especially about your own body!!!) and not try to convince you to stop counseling.

Would you want your children to behave like this? That’s more than likely what they are learning, that the Father has all the say and that the Mother has none. You and your children deserve better!

I also have childhood issues (look up covert incest if you want to be sad) and had to implement some boundaries 2-3 years into my relationship with my husband, also after going into therapy, it did take a little while but he adjusted and happily!! He knows I’m more comfortable and that makes him happy.
