Was going to name change as a few of you will know me but decided not too.
Dd1 came running into the kitchen at lunch time to tell me 'she was watching the news and heard there's a new law about psychological abuse towards partners', I was a bit shocked that she understood what it meant, she's 10 years old, she then said 'that's good isn't it mum, now dad will have to stop being nasty to you' .
How do I react to this?
Dh and I don't have the best relationship ( it's up and down ), a few days ago he really upset me by imitating my voice in front of dd1, he repeated things I was trying to tell him in a whinny voice and was laughing at me and getting dd1 to join in, I got very upset and dh and I had a bit of a argument. It's something that happens often, I don't alway let it get to me but the fact he was doing it in front of dd really upset me. I have been off with dh since and I'm guessing dd1 has picked up on this.
I know feel guilty, guilty for letting dh treat me like a piece of crap and guilty that dd sees what goes on
