Hi,
This is a bit long, but please hear me out.
I have been married for 25 years and I have a 20 year old son. My husband is a short tempered person and he gets angry over the silliest things. We had a small fight last week and he slapped me. I know that he had not done that intentionally. He even apologized to me later. We keep having small fights and we patched up the other day. But it is the first time he hit me. I was shocked and I got really mad at him at that moment. But later when he said sorry. I realized he had not done that on purpose and we sorted it out.
My son had seen him hitting me. He got really angry at my husband. He thinks that he always abuses me and hits me. My husband and son are not in a very good relationship. They always argue over small things. He got so mad with this situation that he went and filed a case against my husband for physically assaulting me.
I have no complaint against my husband. Now I don’t know what to do. I tried convincing him, but he is saying that my husband should be punished for what he did. I am trapped in a battle between my son and my husband. I can’t lose both of them. We are planning to hire a domestic assault lawyer to help my husband come out of this situation. How do we prove my husband’s innocence? And how do I bridge the differences between my husband and my son? Please help me.
