The father may be the 'bad guy' but the mother is emotionally abusive. Poor guy (and poor girl).

I don’t believe he actually has to be the bad guy.
Manipulative parents sometimes exaggerate stories or lie to seem like the victim.

It bothered me how Miri backed down so quickly. She has a right to be upset and suspicious. He acts like the injured party.

How does Aryeh’s mother not realize she is horrible it’s just scares me whenever I see crazy people think they are normal (like my mother and some of my sisters) sometimes I wonder maybe I’m crazy and don’t realize it! Although I do speak to das Torah every step of the way but still it’s so scary

I personally found it sick how Aryeh relates to his mother. They are so enmeshed, almost like emotional incest.

This sometimes happens when the husband is not available emotionally, women will use their oldest child instead as their emotional backbone. It's called emotional parentification.

Does anyone else think he's got a lot of his father in him? More than he'll ever admit?

100% agree with you. Twice you can see how he got a surge of anger but was able to reign it in before anything happened. And where is he for the person who needs him the most, his wife? The way he sometimes responds to Miri making her feel like it’s all her fault not taking responsibility for how his actions effected the situation.

Up until now, I was feeling bad for everyone. Now I'm so upset with Aryeh. Can't he just feel a tad bit of compassion for his wife. I feel like he caused her stress and the premature baby. Imagine the life she could have had with someone who cared and nurtured her. Poor girl. When I was reading I got so frustrated that I said out loud, "Ew I hate him!" and my Husband was just looking at me Scratching Head

Agree
Scary
Made me feel sick for Miri
And so sad about certain marriages irl
Just depressing
And I go to Ami living for diversion
And it is the stuff of nightmares for those of us marrying off kids
Poor Miri’s parents Crying

I agree. It's really creepy and sleazy. I can't stomach reading it anymore. But feel free to post updates so I can find out what happens Smile. (I didn't read the latest one).

A social worker went to visit Miri in the NICU and validates most of her feelings. Miri asks her to come back when her husband is there but to make it seem like a surprise so he won’t be mad and realizes that the social worker made a mental note of that.
