When he and his partner had children, it was an opportunity to ensure correction of how they had been poorly raised by their own parents.
They could now rewrite the script and grow their own children in love by cooperatively working as a team together for the greater good of their family.
But he got spooked at being in this arrangement because his childhood had been filled with destructive behaviors and actions against him by a dominating and controlling single mother.
So he kept looking for any flaw within his partner, picking on her “playfully” as he cut down her confidence and subverted her efforts and careful plans aimed at creating their advancing stability.
He tormented her positivity and innovative reasoning until, after too many years, she at last broke down into nerves and lashed out at him, “justifying” his inherent mistrust.
He took a good, solid woman and turned her into “a monster” because of his own fears – then cast her off to single parent in poverty.
