I am not a great one to give advice because I have never been as assertive in my marriage as I should have been but you might want to ask yourself this...
What do you think will be best for your children in the long run? I am a mother of two and even though my children are grown, the most important thing in my life is that they are healthy, successful and can follow their dreams. I don't think this feeling every goes away. My marriage is important to me but knowing what I know now, I would give it up if I thought it would make my children have better lives (since they are in their 20s, I think it is too late for this to make any significant difference in their lives). So I would try to unemotionally assess: Is he a good father? (Is kind and spends quality time with his children) And is he a good provider? (Sounds like he isn't) Since you have only been married 5 years, I recommend leaving sooner rather than later (if you think that is the best decision). The younger you and your kids are, the easier it might be to make the transition.
Thanks for this!
