my mom has been with this guy for about four years, they recently got married and my family moved in with him. Before they got married he was always nice to us by buying us things we need and taking care of or probelms financially. Now that we moved in with him its been a living hell. He treats my mother like shit and can never have a convesation without screaming at her. i can see that my mother is very upset and im trying to figure out how to confront this situation. Please give me some advice
If he's just being a pain to live with, you should definitely talk to your mom. Ask her if she knew what might cause him to act like this, and if he is really horrible, you might want to try to convince her to divorce him.
If divorce isn't an option, you need to have a family meeting and try to figure out why he is so rude and angry now. It may be that now they are married he doesn't have a reason to be nice. That's disgusting, but some men do that. He may also be depressed. My dad used to scream at my mom a lot, but he talked to his doctor and the doctor told him he was depressed. He got on medication and he doesn't shout anymore.
He could be acting this way for any number of reasons. The best thing to do is to arrange a talk with him, with you and your mom and whoever else is in your house. If he won't say that something is wrong, or he won't be reasonable long enough for you to point out how he is acting, your mom should think about divorce or marriage counseling.
