@Hibernate the rules of being civilized apply to all on this earth. Just because some countries have placed laws on something does not mean that if there is no law you should act barbaric towards another human.
@Hibernate It is starting out badly and will end up badly if it is not stopped. I do not think a restraining order is the issue here. The lack of control is the issue. A conversation may be the most civilized approach, but there already is a loss of being civil when one person is violent against another. So a restraining order is the most civilized approach if it is possible. Some people may think that revenge is in order. I think we all know what the best options are.
I do agree that a person who is already violent in nature may become more violent if their family tries to leave or do something to stop it. That is why a restraining order is in place. If it is not, then a person trying work up the will and time to leave is most likely going to end up in a bad situation.
Please tell us your opinion on what a person should do in this situation. Maybe it’s me, but you seem to be against a person standing up against this. What is it you recommend?
Too bad the original video of Pearl Jam’s Better Man is not available for you on this topic
Waitin’, watchin’ the clock, it’s four o’clock, it’s got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over…
Pretends to sleep as he looks her over
She lies and says she’s in love with him, can’t find a better man…
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can’t find a better man…
Talkin’ to herself, there’s no one else who needs to know…
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along…
Swears she knew it, now she swears he’s gone
She lies and says she’s in love with him, can’t find a better man…
She loved him, yeah… she don’t want to leave this way
She feeds him, yeah… that’s why she’ll be back again
