No, that is not what I said. I said that her husband's mood swings are not her responsibility, but his and only his. What is ultimately her responsibility, is her own life and happiness and, to a large extent, that of her son too. Then I concluded to say that, if things don't work out eventually, she'll have only one choice.

I get it. sometimes when a man works his entire life to set up a home for his family, he can and does get into a bit of a rut. Or in plain english, becomes frustrated over the desires for a better outcome today in his life which will include you...
This all basically boils down to: "Men are under a lot of stress and it's okay if they take it out on their families. But if you love him enough, things will work out." Sorry, but that is two strikes out in my opinion. It is never okay for anyone to take out their frustrations on their loved ones and you can love someone to death, but that will not solve any problems.
