I asked what a temper tantrum on a grown man looked like, and he started to scream. Not scream at me, more like a terrifying primal scream. I packed my bags and said, “Call me after you stand up to that prick.”

I wish there were something I could do to change his family. Please help me, Amy Sea. You're my only hope.
