If I was still blogging, I would write a letter to Grace who is deeply in the grip of the blindness and fog...<br /><br />BTDT with the control over my hair. BTDT sitting next to my husband and being embarrassed about how he was treating someone. BTDT making excuses for him, covering for him. BTDT taking ALL the blame for the marriage problems so that his ego remained carefully polished. BTDT as he bullied others, me, the children...<br /><br />One day, I think Grace will wake up and smell the coffee and I'm not sure their marriage will survive it? It depends on whether MD will receive correction from a (contemptuous spit!) woman!<br /><br />Justin Brierley is my hero this week and I grieve that my children have not had a role model like him to emulate. Instead, I had to correct my 11 yo son for bullying my 9 yo son yesterday. The apple does not fall far from the tree :(<br /><br />When her children bully like daddy, how will Grace feel? I am there and it grieves my heart...Gemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778796852665760660noreply@blogger.com
