I know two women who refused to leave control freaks. They couldn't handle being on their own. One even molested one of the kids and she wouldn't leave. She said she couldn't survive without him.

When I worked for the ambulance service, we had one steady call. The wife would call the ambulance if her husband stayed in the bathroom too long. We eventually threatened her with jail. But he stayed with her.
