If this is a new behavior I would definitely discuss it with her doctors. It could be any number of things. My grandmother suffered from Sun Downer’s. During the day, she was sweetness and light, but at night WOW. Maybe they will have some insight to give you.

I just wanted to say that I share your views that there is a difference between a man hitting a woman and a woman hitting a man. (Although I do not condone any abuse!) I have three sons, and I have raised them to believe that it is NEVER acceptable to hit a female. I do not believe this has anything to do with politics, it is my feeling that it has everything to do with manners. It may not be politically correct, it may very well be sexist but there you are.

I know there is no humor in your situation. But my favorite Aunt is barely five feet tall. Both of her sons were over 6 feet. When she got irritated she would take her slipper off and whap them with it. It did not hurt them, but they got the point! It was very comical to watch this tiny woman whacking her sons with her slipper. They had to be sitting down of course, and they tried very hard not to laugh themselves because they realized they’d crossed a line.
