When I was young and new to the dating world, my uncle told me I need to look long and hard at the men I would date. He said to imagine dropping your children off to their house for visitation and if you couldn’t, then that wasn’t someone you wanted to procreate with.

Wow, great advice. I told my niece when she filed assault charges against her boyfriend to imagine him doing that to a future daughter. She later changed her story and said she lied, he didn’t really drag her down the stairs by her hair and slam her head into the dashboard. Now she has a parenting plan after their divorce where he has supervised visits only because he bruised their tiny daughter “spanking” her for “lying” about jumping on the bed.
A SPANK IS A SPANK....
A BRUISE IS TOO MUCH.
