When a Mother Snaps and Does Something Really Horrible to a Child

If you're bothered three times while maybe it's time to say look this is bothering me there's something going on here or we'll drag it forward into the future. The same thing happens when people get divorced, it's the cumulative consequence of 1000 signaled, signaled crisis that we're never delved into and sorted out. I mean I know why people do it because it's very painful to delve into something that produces emotional upset - God only knows what you'll find.
