[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 634577, member: 1233"] I think it is wonderful that they have banned him. In order for him to even be possibly eligible he should have to go through mandatory therapy - group and individual - for a long time, and he should have to STAY in therapy for as long as he is playing. There really is therapy that can help. Even if the person says it isn't helping, some can and will sink in. He should have to be monitored somehow, and SHE should have to have therapy also. I would LOVE to see Robin McGraw step in to help this woman. Her programs seem to be very effective - I know our DV center LOVES her work. She has an amazing app that doesn't look like it is anything an abuser would object to, but it calls for help at the tuoch of a button and it records what is going on in the room so that there is proof of what is happening, at least audio of it. The wife needs help and prayers and support as she truly has no clue that she has value as a person and she is blind to the sickness in her relationship. Hopefully in time she will wise up and either leave or insist that they both go to therapy. It is about time professional sports addressed this issue and set a boundary for pro athletes. It is NOT 'private business' or 'a family affair'. Domestic violence impacts all of our lives and hiding behind the lie that it is private family business is just an abuser's way of trying to get away with it with no real consequences. Maybe this guy will one day see that being forced to get real help for this has kept him off death row or out of prison for life for murdering his wife. IF he gets real help and IF he changes and IF he doesn't kill her, that is. At least if he does kill her, there is documentation that the abuse happened and he had a chance to get the help that can stop the abuse. I hope and pray that the woman and any kids involved can get away from him safely and stay away safely. [/QUOTE]
