That you don't hit bedroom doors

So husband lost his temper today with our 18yo DD. He didn't like her attitude and punched our bedroom door leaving a big crack in the panel. AIBU to think that a 47 year old man should be able to control his temper better than this?
Bit of backstory: He's an alcoholic, he's been trying and failing to stay sober for about a year, before that drinking heavily and in denial for about 2 years. His trigger is usually our 2 DD or something about the house. But his behaviour while drunk has seriously affected relationships with all of us.

Not ok at all. Ds 1 tried this once when he was 11 and I said in would take the door off the next time, at 13 he hasn't done since and I dont expect him to again.

Your dh I would show him the door and not to come back until hed been sober for at least a year

Witnessing this behaviour will be seriously damaging to your daughters. Please leave him and keep them emotionally safe.
