What is it about cabbage leaves that causes milk supply to dry up?

My husband is an alcoholic. Each "episode" consists of verbal abuse and physical abuse. My children 18, 20, 24 have lost respect for him. On his "good" days he can be the sweetest man in the world. I find it extremely difficult to file for a divorce after he's back to "normal" because I feel sorry for him. I truly am afraid of becoming one of those wives that loses her life for staying at his side. How is it that I feel more guilty for my actions than he does? I know I'll be criticized for putting up with this for so long. I just wish he would go away. Ive tried restraining orders and he just won't stay away and to not cause him more legal problems I let him get away with it. The first time I finally had him arrested I thought for sure that would do it, well things just got worse. Now it's "my fault" he's in all this trouble with the law. I don't know what to do anymore like I said before, I just wish he would go away. Why don't alcoholics just go away? Why don't they leave their families to pursue the life they want to live as alcoholics?

?Tienen diferente significado las palabras - wey y buey, aparte de que "buey", tecnicamente, es el animal? Yo pensaba que la palabra "buey" se usaba entre amigos igual como ofendiendo a alguien. Espero entiendan mi pregunta.

Es otra palabra para virgen?

se uso en una oracion en Y!A pidiendo traduccion de la oracion:

"el pequeno instino del ganado"

As in I did it this morning. My kids laugh at me because I say "I texted" Oops I just got the misspelled word warning!!!

This word is in another Y!A request for translation:

"el pequeno instino del ganado"

Why is it that when there is a list of items in Spanish such as:

el libro

la pelota

los arboles

las nubes

they seem to always be translated as:

book

ball

trees

clouds

Why doesn't the English version include "the".

Now, I know the difference, but I feel that someone that is learning should see the entire phrase. Why not make the Spanish list without el, la, los, las. Just wondering.

I have a stong work ethic and strict work values. I work very hard to do things right and within a timely manner. I find it hard to put up with co-workers who are not this way. They loaf around in the morning and get a late start. They leave early when the boss is not around. They treat our clients rudely. Why can't I just do my job and not let all this bother me?
