I blocked my in-laws and stopped speaking to them because they use hard drugs daily and I don’t want that around my children. I didn’t even do anything else, just stopped speaking to them. The first thing out of my husbands nieces mouth was she’s going to come here and “bash my head in” and “whoop my ass”

It just got me thinking....

I wouldn’t even consider this as a solution to my problems?? Is it normal for people to jump to violence as their first defense? Do people really think and say these things? Where does this stem from? Do you think it’s from mental illness, being abused as a child, immaturity?? Or something else?? Like, I genuinely want to know, why do people think this will solve any issues?
