I just finished an interview where I said I would encourage every woman who is experiencing physically abused to get a divorce and the other panelists looked at me as if I had gone crazy.

Do you guys think it's ok to stay in a marriage where your "husband" beats up on you?

I am clear about this:

If a "husband" beats my daughter.

I will personally pack her bag, buy her a new house, and hire/pay for a divorce lawyer.

There is no basis for physical abuse in my world.

What if your colleague (at work) does the same thing your wife did/does, would you beat her in the office?

You would exercise restraint so that you don't lose your job, right?

Why can't you do the same with the mother of your children?

*experiencing physical abuse

One immutable commandment:

Thou shall NOT beat your wife.

AKA love thy neighbor as thyself.
