Abusers are also control freaks and his way of continuing to control you would be gaining custody of your kids, but if he is now only getting supervised visits, I don't know how he thinks that he will get sole custody!! Your kids are old enough to speak to the judge themselves and depending on their maturity, their wishes will weigh heavily on the judges decision. I was married to one of these too, and its just an ongoing battle with them because they won't stop trying to do everything they can to hurt you, even if it involves your kids..Good Luck and hang in there...
