I am in a similar situation. I can only say that I just keep showing her the way out and keep encouraging her to do it. I think it helps that in my state if you allow your children to witness abuse on a regular basis, it's considered abuse, and you can have your children removed from the home. It's a threat that scares her but she hates herself so much, she feels she deserves the abuse. It's a fucking train wreck and all you can do is try to offer support and guidance on getting out and love them when they are wounded.
