Chapter 2: Letting Go

[LoisB]

I think Shining has the right idea. :-)

Um...yep, I would consider that deeply, terribly, horribly inappropriate and abusive.

Julie,

Google domestic violence laws in your state. I know that in Ohio, if there is any threat of violence uttered in the house, the person uttering the threat can/will be taken in and jailed. Look up what qualifies for domestic violence.

At the very least, his behavior is abusive, obnoxious and adolescent...a firm boundary needs to be set...especially if he is doing this in front of your kids. No one needs to live with this type of verbal abuse.

Think about what boundaries needs set. Gather your support around you and think carefully about how you can enforce your boundaries.
