[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Long story short, I met someone who knew him as a child and that person said that as a kid, his father beat him excessively. 
You wouldn't know it today, he only speaks highly of his family. He's an all around decent person, who never has anything bad to say about anyone. 
This person told me that she knew his family well when they were growing up, and she described the kind of abuse where the kids ran out of the house and were carried back inside, everyone could hear them being beaten. Often for the slightest things, and he, being the oldest, got it the worst. She also said that the father had them remove their clothes/pants to beat them. She said that once another kid teased him about being beaten (mean), but he shrugged and denied that it ever happened.

My sister says that he had great parents, I think because he said that he had great parents. To me, the only thing that I have seen is a look of sadness at times, and this is in hindsight.

I [u]will[/u] tell my sister (we are close and I am not afraid), but before I do, any constructive advice?[/quote]

This is none of your business and keep your gossipy mouth shut.  What a busybody notch you are!  [/quote]
