Guys, I need your help. My daughter divorced a Deputy that had 10 years on the force. The reason is he couldn't leave the job there when he came home. He was involved with the worst of the worst and it took a toll on him. He just couldn't turn off being mean when he got home. Beat her up a couple of times for no reason. Some folks should never be married. Now, with that background, its happening all over again. She is dating (smitten really) with another Deputy. This guy is a rookie still in training and has neither had to deal with really bad folks, nor had to deal with being mean all day and turning it off when he gets home. I need to start out on the right foot. She is bringing him to meet us Sunday. Here is where I really need some help and guidance from you guys. What can I do to help see that this doesn't happen all over again? I had a great relationship with the first one. We really enjoyed hunting and shooting together, but I was useless helping my daughter defusing the pent up anger he brought home. I do get it, I know just how difficult your jobs are, got the blow by blow every day. But, I really want to learn what I can do to keep this from happening again.
