A parent owes their kids being civil to the other parent and parenting cooperatively with them (as long as the other parent isn't abusive or something like that) but that's it. If you stay with him, they may eventually pick up on the unhappiness in the relationship, think that being unhappy in a relationship is normal, and stay in unhappy relationships themselves in the future.
I realize that it's ok to leave. I don't want to give up though. I really do love him. Also I'm not in a financial situation to take care of my 4 kids alone.
