MrsHD DID NOT threaten the kids. She said she would not fund a savings account. Keep the two separate. If she did threaten the kids, that would be another matter, but I have NO doubt HD would step in with the same assertiveness others are showing here.

The object of MrsHD's threats is not the issue as far as repairing the marriage goes. What IS important is why she reacts so strongly and by making threats or ultimatums. There is really nothing very odd in this if we assume she came from a really fcked up family (which I find hard to not believe).

As Corri and lil wondered, drinking and being too close to disturbing clients does seem like a reasonable, though partial, explanation. I still think she has so much crap in her past that even HD may not know all about it. Only a good counselor can get to the bottom of this.
