Over the years I have noticed when there is a problem 'reported' of a man and wife WE DO NOT KNOW, I take the side of the wife and my wife sides with the husband. I have often wondered why that is.Women are HARD on women for some reason, or that is how I have perceived it. I have never worked for a woman, so I have no idea how I would feel. My wife has worked for several women and men and the only 'problems' have been with the female boss.This is a very touchy and serious problem, knowing when and 'if' to report abuse. It is serious enough to ruin a man or woman's entire LIFE, and endanger their jobs and personal welfare.The abuse situations I have known personally (2) have been child abuse types. One the step child with diagnosed mental problems accused a nephew of abuse. He was a pastor in NYC. He was publicly arrested, cuffed and taken from his church office.

It is hard to determine verbal abuse without actually being there.Dave's advice is right on here. Believe them both - help them sort it out.Try not to judge or shun them.It might be you one day
