WOW - just talked to my parents. My father asked what I have done to contribute to this environment of abuse! WTF???????? That's victim blaming, as though I have provoked the abuse from my husband. BS! I have done nothing but love my husband. I hate that my father just said this. Right now, I hate my father. We have issues.

My husband may have been provoked to be angry at me because I question him a lot of the time, but that is NO excuse or reason for him to then start yelling at me, raging at me and abusing me, calling me names and insulting me. I'm speaking of his past behaviors, not recent.
