Update: Everything hit the fan when he woke up. I got angry he wasnt speaking and said I was taking the children with immediate family for dinner. When he repeatively asked who, he knew it was my mother, whom he hates. He went and grabbed a hammer from the tool box, and said he was calling police. When he came through with the hammer, I didnt know if he was going for me or the door. I panicked. My mom and her boyfriend were parked around the corner but I dialed 911 because of his threats, I hung up. They call back and my husbands in the background saying Im free to go wherever, when I KNOW he was going to smash up my mothers car (or worse). (He has damaged a friends car of mine years ago with a round weight...that was PFA #2 I had.)He called his father, his father came down knowing police coming. (Later on he says I betrayed trust for calling...) They took their time. The police show up and I explained it. The whole story. My whole day. As long as we were "okay" and he didnt swing at me it was "fine"... the trooper also has twins and has worked overnights and short tempers I guess.. my mom was very upset and was asked to leave when they did The cop actually reccommended my husband put a PFA on my mother... I'm at a loss. Im so conditioned to this, I am from a broken home, my homes broken.. and all my husband wants to blame yesterday on was my mother. He doesnt even see what he did to our son it seems.
