Why oh why do abusive women get away with stuff that if it were a man, they would NEVER, EVER get away with!

My partner just found out that after all the beatings she gave the kids, after all the abuse, she's just going to get a "talking to". It's a friggin sin. The kids are scared to go to their Mom's because they don't want to be spanked, they don't want the soap in their mouths for no reason, and with an investigation, they are just going to tell here, hey you shouldn't do that.. carry on.

If that were him that beat the kids, my god. He'd have lost custody, and have charges laid on him already I'm sure, it's so crazy.

I feel so bad for him. She abused and "re-broke" him 2 months ago by slapping him, a grown man. So, he does what he feels right, what he should do to step up and protect his kids, and she gets away with it. Just like she got away with bankruptcy fraud, and unemployment fraud, she gets away with it.

I just hope I can be supportive enough to keep him from falling apart, he feels so defeated right now. But, boy do I ever hope Karma takes care of her. Those poor kids, and him. Such emotional/mental pain caused by one woman
