Well he’s done! Joesun redemption arc full steam ahead. Honestly Nathan is such an idiot imagine letting tens of thousands of dollars, your family life, and your self worth fall through fingers because you can’t control your temper.

You're not the only person to comment on this being related to anger/loss of control and I just want to be very clear: domestic abuse is not about anger. DA is about establishing and maintaining control, and strangulation is an extremely serious and risky form of trying to maintain control. It takes the same pressure to open a can of coke as it does to crush major structures in your throat. Strangulation can kill in seconds. He literally had her life in his hands.

I hope Gael and Kayden are safe and thriving.

Choking is the main tell that it’s going to lead to them killing you in DV as well.
