Strength will serve you much better than fear and trembling.
Bullies bow to those who stand strong against them.
Truth, honor, integrity, and strength will slay the meanest and toughest bully out there.
The bully wins when we allow his intimidation to revert us to a state of weakness.
If your own self worth is not enough to compel you to be strong, surely your daughter is worth enough to cause you to put aside this weakness and trembling.
Always do what is right. Always take the high road. Refuse to enter into a war of words. The bully will often use angry words to force into a behavior that he can use against us. You have to be wiser than the bully, recognize the trap, and refuse to play that game.
Refer everything possible to the lawyers. This is not a man that you will EVER be able to reason with. The man you fell in love with is, at least temporarily, gone. Do not allow your past feelings for him to falsely convince you that he deserves your compassion or the benefit of the doubt.
Make no mistake, this is now a battle. But you are on the side of what is right.
Blessings,
Bill
