A parents obligation to their children is more nuanced than your implying, setting an example isn't the only factor. Not to mention abuse is used to break your will to stand up for yourself, and even if that weren't a factor, communication isn't possible with people unwilling to listen.

Relationships are a two way street, but when you've got kids., it's not just about the relationship with your partner anymore
