Glad...That's okay, Grant. I got you covered ;)<br /><br />Glad you liked that title. It's interesting, though: sometimes what we presume would have been small town behaviors turns out to be something found even in those "sophisticated" big cities.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-48811343846615266462013-02-16T15:23:48.942-08:002013-02-16T15:23:48.942-08:00With two strong willed people, I can only imagine ...With two strong willed people, I can only imagine what that scene was like, Magda. On the other hand, it could have been a simple argument that got out of hand--and then aired for the entire community to see, thanks to some overzealous rumor mongers. I just had a hard time believing it was a city newspaper that ran that story, and sometimes wonder if some green-eyed motivations were behind its publication.<br /><br />However, as for domestic violence, you are certainly right: that is something that needs to be faced squarely and not swept away and ignored. I've heard far too many stories from both my line of work and my husband's. Thankfully, there are so many professionals addressing the issue in our times, providing help and raising community awareness.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-42718870911840566712013-02-16T14:43:30.081-08:002013-02-16T14:43:30.081-08:00Sorry, I didn't get it right the first (or the...Sorry, I didn't get it right the first (or the second) time.
