Connie Bush+FollowToday is our son's 10th birthday.. husband's behavior making me feel sick to my stomach It’s heartbreaking to admit, but I see a pattern I can’t ignore anymore. My husband has always acted jealous of our son. From the time he was a baby struggling with eating, my husband nitpicked every little thing at meals. Though it’s improved slightly, the way he talks to our son still hurts to watch—mocking him, poking holes in his ideas, making him feel small.Today was our son’s 10th birthday. Instead of hugs or words of encouragement, my husband called him a “turd” repeatedly while I was trying to share loving memories. It crushed me. When I tried to talk to him, he brushed me off, said I was "too sensitive," and told me to leave him alone.I'm torn between preserving our family and protecting my son’s spirit. I'm scared of the damage silence might cause.Has anyone else been through this? How did you find the strength to choose the right path? 💔#ParentingChallenges #EmotionalAbuseAwareness #ProtectOurChildren #FamilyHealing #BreakingCycles #Parenting7994Share
