[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp’s that clearly share my pain…do you ever consider your dh’s behavior to be abusive? Perfect parents, please chime out. -op[/quote] I’m the 12:26 PP and no, I don’t. He doesn’t name call, or swear, or throw things, or yell. He’s more Alpha male/old school/thou shalt obey than I like and also than research supports being. His father actually was abusive (physically), so he doesn’t cross that line. His parenting isn’t ideal, but it’s not harmful. I’ve found Tina Payne Bryson, one of the authors of Whole Brain Child, to have really helpful parenting guidance. Kids don’t need perfect parents, but they need parents to be present and connected. I guess it depends on how frequently this kind of behavior occurs, and what exactly it comprises, too, in making that determination.[/quote]
