My heart bleeds for you when I hear of your situation....but you know, you have the power to change it when you are ready.
I just don't believe his behavior is going to change, there are no consequences for his behavior (that I have been able to see)....he gets angry, yells at you and the kids and you do your best to not make the situation worse....which means, in general, he has no consequences for his actions.
His behavior was absolutely deplorable! And now, if I understand you correctly, he was berating you in a public place too? (when buying band aids.)
It just sounds to me that you cannot be yourself around this man, and your children also cannot be children around this man...this is very sad. In my mind, it is one thing for you to make the choice of tip-toeing around your H....but your children are being forced to do this too....and they aren't choosing to.
I know change is scary, I know what you are facing is very scary....I know you keep hoping he will wake up and see what he's been doing to all of you and I understand that. But what I want to know is this....what are YOU waiting for? You have the power to change this, yes it will be hard...but you have the power to change so much in the lives of you and your children....for the better, what exactly are YOU waiting for?
We're here for you though, Take care of you and the kids....that overgrown child you are living with needs a reality check.
