[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a father with an anger management problem. Please do not have children with this man.

I grew up terrified of my father. As in, I would cry if I had to be home alone with him. Up until my early 20's, if any older man (teacher, boss, etc.) got angry at me, I'd get tears in my eyes and do the Silent Cry. I couldn't help it -[b] I assumed there was so much anger behind their yelling and that they were just as angry as my father always was.[/b]

My father mellowed around the age of 60. For him. He still yells at my mother in restaurants and other public places.

A few years ago my father got so angry at my mother while we were in the car, that he expressed his anger by shooting forward, then slamming on the brakes, and I had a panic attack for the only time in my life.

PLEASE do NOT have children with a man like this.

Most women would tear up if a teacher or boss yelled (!) at them.

OP, only you know your level of tolerance towards raised voices. I have none. Although from what you wrote, I don't feel your husband is abusive. He is the way he is. It's good he's trying, and it's great it has a positive effect on your daily life. But again, you are the only person who can decide if you'd rather live with this man or live alone (at least for a while). Good luck to you.[/quote]
