cruiser647 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Tell him about his actions and your consequences. I like Chri5's comments aobut the domestic abuse comments to employers, police etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 One thing about threatening him. You absolutely have to be willing and capable of carrying it through, and leave him in no doubt of that. Whatever the circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 P.S. And there is a school of thought that says once you've reached that position, the threat is relatively meaningless and best to skip it and go straight to the main event.

Tipex Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) I think Chris post is the most sensible, and probably the best way to tackle it. Having said that, I'd have already been around asking him to push someone his own size, and after that, who knows what would happen. I would hope it also sets alarm bells ringing in your ex Mrs head too if she's got any sense, someone that pushes their weight around and isn't afraid of using physical behavior against a 12 year old, is probably only one temper tantrum away from hitting her. My cousin, who is more like my sister, was seeing someone very similar, she already had a daughter by someone else, and they had two children together, he treated her elder daughter like crap (she was 6 at the time), and got more and more physical, when confronted by my cousin, he hit her, then tried to break her leg over the end of the bed. He got, erm, without incriminating myself or any of my brothers, a 'talking to'. Edited March 7, 2014 by Tipex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Edit - ref garçon's post: Unless he's a bampot I would disagree. If you can impress on someone just what it means if they overstep the mark, it can be very effective. But you're right, if you then fail to carry it out or blink first, then you lose.

In this case, it wouldn't work, but I always found (in the old days, when cabbies could fight and f*ck passengers) that if a group of lads got in your car, and started threatening you, you'd just fly off the handle, go completely mental and act as if you've nothing to lose, and you don't give a sh*t any more, threaten to f*ck each and every one of them up, and tell them that even if you lose the fight, one of them's going to hospital. Never failed for me, and usually ended up with an apology and a large tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waylander Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Naa. Its the same the country over. Police and csbbies here had an understanding - sort it out yourself OR involve us. Never both. It was usually the former Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Bangle Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 I'd remind him of the The Children’s Act 2004, this makes it illegal to hit a child if it causes bruising, swelling, cuts, grazes or scratches and this is punishable by up to five years’ imprisonment.

Rachel Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Interesting Tipex. Why wouldn't you just threaten to slide the car rear passengers first into a large tree at a rate of knots? Aggressive passengers tend to go very quiet when they realise they actually aren't in control. (I've had 2, both drunk ex-colleagues who tried it on - a nice fast drift through a roundabout shut both of them up) Oh, and as a result of that, has refused ever since to give work colleagues a lift, regardless of circumstance.

garcon magnifique Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Cabbies in Hartlepool have only just stopped f*cking their passengers. I've just re-read this thread. Calm Chris has the best sensible answer I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 So sorry to hear the emotional turmoil - that Calm Chris has a good head on his shoulders and a few could learn something from his wisdom!!
