Well, I suppose he should just say adios to Mom and he'll catch her on the flipside when she kicks Mr Wonderful to the curb.

God you can be a dickhead sometimes.
Read the original post... she's sobbing as she tells me her fiance (my dad passed 4 years ago) has been verbally abusing her and shoving her and she has decided to have a restraining order and have him removed from the house. Do you REALLY want to imply that she's a liar or is too naive to understand what actually constitutes abuse? She said he's abusing her. Therefore, we can only assume she's being abused, unless of course you're implying one of the above. |

I'd want my kids to get my wife out of the house. I'd want them to confront him, but not in front of my grandkids. that is a great point by the way.

It doesn't matter what I think the word "abuse" means. She said she was being abused and that constitute abuse. Take your stupid political definition of the word "is" shit back to DC. |

Encourage your mother to get counseling. Often times the abused person feels the abuse is warranted. It could be she knows she needs to get out, but doesn't have the nerve.
Whatever it is, it won't hurt her to go to a professional who deals with these situations.

Thanks for all the advice guys. Some pretty good stuff in there. I feel good about my decision. I just talked to her and told her that it was that strong set of principles that led me to my decision. the principles she taught me. She has calmed down about it. We're goin to the inlaws instead, so kids still get to see other grandparents.

and there's no way I'm spending the holiday without my kids just because she may choose to do so. As someone earlier said, I'm a father first, son second (actually I believe it's husband, grandfather, father, son, in that order, but you get the drift)
