Am I supposed to be OK with this?

My husband just said to my son, I'm going to hit you so hard in a minute I'm so angry you're embarrassing me in public. He never really hits him. But I always grew up thinking I would never stand for one second of this. And when it comes to it I feel helpless. He's not 'bad' enough to divorce but I hate him for doing this. Wish he would disappear somehow.

Talk to him when you're both feeling calm.
These things happen. Not to say that it's ok but at least tell him what it makes you feel like and discuss what triggered him so badly

Why do you feel helpless? Have you brought this up to your husband ever? Seems like an important discussion to have. Certainly if you are even mentioning the word divorce surely there are conversations to be had, and therapists to see first.

I don't really see what the problem with that is. It depends on the circumstances and how he said it. All children are hit sometimes. The previous post seems very insightful. My husband hits his nieces and nephews and it really bothers me. I'm so embarrassed but that's not my shame. He's the one hitting children who are not his. They have parents and if they have a problem with it they can discuss it with him.
