[QUOTE="maril, post: 243739, member: 5937"] Okay, so I really laughed and then my eyes teared up after reading all your posts! You all are gems. After school today was okay. Not much was said, and now he is off with his friend to who knows where. Lol, thanks for the reassurance and wishes. St. Martin, here we come! To quote aeroeng: (I couldn't figure out how to include more than one quote using the controls on the page, so I copied the quotes myself in the rest of my post): "You are correct husband needs to get with the program. But, it is as hard for him to control his anger as it is for me to not cry in front of the principle. He probably understands it, wants it, but has a hard time controlling it.
