My daughter, newly married, a new mother, has become a victim of physical abuse by her husband. How, in Gods name, does a mother and a father accept, pretend, and pretty much, deny that it's ever happened? How do we do this, please, someone tell me? How are we ever going to sleep again, or lead a normal life, when all you see in your head, is your daughter being thrown to the floor?
Dear God, I pray that she will leave him "before" she finds out that "Anger Management" doesn't work. What makes it so much easier for them to stay with the men, then leave them? I'm so afraid that it's going to happen again, and I'll hear the sirens, before I ever hear her voice again. I shake from the inside, out, and picture myself lashing out at him, physically. Please, how do you move on, and pretend that it has never happened?
