I'm glad my dd is ready for marriage and hopefully now she will know that seclusion and in some rare cases suicide is not the option, but to find help.
Until you have to deal with this, and hopefully you will not, you will understand that this is not a laughing matter.
Sorry to be so serious about it, but it is something that I am glad did not go to the levels as some of the other kids that kill others or themselves.
First of all, the intended point of my original comment was how cruel wives are to husbands. Not the other way around. Poor husbands. Ha Ha. Second, there is little that I am unwilling to joke about. Others have different thresholds. No problem. That's reality. I have made many jokes about spousal abuse in my house and every time my wife was the one doing the beating. There is little that I take more seriously or find more sickening than a husband beating on his wife or vice versa.
Sorry I offended you. That was not my intent.
