Have a friend who had a lengthy affair with her husband's TWIN BROTHER...wow...and the brothers' relationship has been wounded ever since. Friend and husband are still married, but she has certainly put up with his share of shit over the years, too...weird, but true!

Am hotter now than when I married (now separated for a month due to emotional, physical, and alcohol abuse)...I have a lot to offer...but I also know NOT to ask DH what he thinks...he's an ass most of the time!! HAHA!

Abuse does NOT have to be physical...what OP's husband said to child...that's verbal abuse...I've lived it...and have never retaliated in physical violence, but my teens have heard what their father's said to me and taken physical retaliation out on their father for abusing me emotionally and verbally...abuse does not need to have 911 or DSS called...it is quiet, sneaky, codependent...
OP...you do need to get counseling...I am currently in counseling but am the only one in my nuclear family who feels the need to heal...you'll figure it out....

I say he's married...minivan??? Seriously?? Even with 2 kids?? I say BS!!
