[QUOTE="barneysmom, post: 335713, member: 1872"] You did a great job and it sounded like you made the decision to call the police in a healthy, detached manner (not that you need to be detached to call the police, but your words "I thought" in your post make me think you are doing a great job in progressing toward detachment). Detachment is a big issue for me too -- I too am working through it and making progress. It's baby steps. We too have had the law here a couple of times over the past couple of months. It's hard and scary for me when the aggression gets so loud. My son's (gfgA) voice is extremely loud and harsh. I get very anxious. I have a meditation practice and I was meditating today when some verbal violence broke out. It was pretty interesting to observe, from that place of detachment, all the responses that the violence provoked in my body. OMG. I couldn't believe how strong the urge was to jump up and handle the situation (I didn't). Also very good for your husband to learn from a real-life situation. Sounds like he had quite a bit of anger built up -- hope he gets some relief from his anger and grief with some counseling. Lots of hugs. [/QUOTE]
