Dear Harry,

Unfortunately for you, it is your sister who has to deal with her husband and she will not leave him until she is ready to.  This situation is not going to be good for the child.  What makes you think he is going to move them away?  Have you spoken to this man about your concerns or his behavior.  Have you personally witnessed his behavior or are you going on what your sister has told you.  Not speaking to someone for days on end is psychological abuse and moving someone away from their family is another weapon that an abuser uses.  Do you think your sister would actually go?
