Re: domestic violance
It is difficult to say how your present problem will be dealt with by the court. If you have an extensive history of calls to the police for DV, it could mean a strict probation with counseling. There is no question that you and your husband could benefit greatly from counseling, and you may wish to consider getting into a program before going to court. That could save you being assigned to a program not of your choosing. DV is taken seriously, particularly as an ongoing situation as you present, and you can expect some serious intrusion by the system as a repeat offender. Check out some counseling and good luck.
