My husband has a fractured relationship with both of our adult children. Our children are good people, and I am proud of who they have become. My husband, I believe has a mental disorder that was never diagnosed or treated. Although he loves his children, he ruled with an iron fist most of their lives. He never hit them but the words he used most of their lives and the silent treatment was just as damaging. He has a bad temper, and no one can talk to him about the damage this has done. My son tried to speak to him about this many times and my husband explodes into a temper tantrum. He’s driving his kids further and further away. Please pray for resolution. The holidays are nearing, and it will be hard.
