Your child's doctor wants you to be sure you get help for the partner difficulties you have been having, even if someone else thinks it's a bad idea. What happens between partners is private. It is your life and well being that has to come first. A lot of people need help and are getting it regardless of what others say. Consider getting confidential and free help at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). Also, check the other resources from the doctor to see if your doctor has recommended local professionals or programs that should be helpful: If not, call the office.
