In the first few years our M was pretty violent. I became more insecure as his verbal abuse kept bringing down & therefore I became a doormat. Shortly after one physical violent incident, I started to see the light and got courage to take up for myself and the kids.
He learned? to 'control' his behavior for some time, but eventually his temper would get the best of him.
X needs lots of therapy. He is continuing w/ his control antics and will continue to destroy his R, but unfortunatley it seems this girls is willing to put up w/ it and her kid will suffer.
I am glad my girls dont have to live w/ this on a day to day basis, but no one can MAKE him get help.
