Would you hit them back, try to block their attacks, leave or let them continue? I hit my Dad once and knocked him out but that was after years of him physically abusing me, my sister and Mum and while I am not a violent I don’t regret doing that but I could never hit my Wife.
What would you do?

I WAS abused. By two different husbands. I had guns and knives pulled on me. You damn right I fought back! I had to to survive and protect my children until I could find a way to safely get out. They would get sent to jail and be released hours later and find me, so I HAD to learn to protect myself. The law in my county Sure as hell wasn't doing it! Orders of protection meant nothing to my ex.
