This guy was telling his toddler to say things like, "Mommy is fat." 'Mommy is ugly." I said that was a great thing to be teaching his son and he had to be pretty pleased with himself. He got all rilled up and so did the woman. She said it was none of my business. I closed by saying to her, "Well, when you get your divorce, think of me!" I've always wondered if she thought about that later and if she has gotten a divorce.Cheri Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09667326473998749250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-452921426943353710.post-91212293926508972142011-09-23T10:31:47.716-07:002011-09-23T10:31:47.716-07:00Thanks for the comment, Gabby.

I hope she eventually did, and I hope she didn't take further abuse because of what I did.LaurieBeehttp://lauriebeesfamilyhive.blogspot.com/2011/09/stand-for-truth-and-righteousness.html?showComment=1316797937686#c7229426288766080398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-452921426943353710.post-72294262887660803982011-09-23T10:12:17.686-07:002011-09-23T10:12:17.686-07:00Way to go for saying something!

I've called the police countless times when I've had my little ones with me and can't really get in the middle. But I agree, people shouldn't be so afraid to do or say something. The difficult part is knowing what will happen afterwards. Will the abusive person go home and further hurt the woman or child because he was reprimanded/embarrassed in public? Perhaps. And that is sad but what I think is that if the woman or child continues to see someone standing up for them, it increases the chances that one day they will be able to stand up for themselves, realize that this type of treatment is wrong, and call the police, leave the abuser, or if a child - tell a teacher, friend of the family who can help, etc.Gabrielle Valentinenoreply@blogger.com
