Verbal abuse

Probably every month my husband is verbally abusive in front of me and/or the children (aged 14 and 12). The rest of the time he’s ok.
It’s always if I interfere with how he disciplined the kids or because I ask him to come and help out more around the house. We can’t be a united front because he’s either too aggressive or downright rude to them so I automatically spring to their defence. Advice please! I’m so lost and confused.

I always told my DH that I would back him up if I thought he was right, but not if he wasn't. He'd didn't always like that, but he wasn't abusive over it.

Sounds like yours doesn't get that as a concept.

Its not acceptable behaviour
I saw your comment on the other post where you said he had also been physically abusive before. I think you should consider leaving him.

I know. I am.
