One evening, while reviewing home camera footage, I witnessed something deeply unsettling. My husband, typically kind and patient, suddenly appeared unrecognizable. He put his phone down and approached our young daughter with a stern expression that immediately raised concern. His tone was unusually harsh, and his movements were tense—far from the gentle presence I was used to.
Our daughter, only a few years old, looked startled and confused. She clearly didn’t understand what had caused the change in his demeanor. Though he didn’t physically harm her, the emotional weight of the interaction was unmistakable. His sharp gestures and raised voice created a moment that felt heavy and unfamiliar.
