This British man has been arrested in Marmaris. Only drink has made him lose it in public but this is not the first time his wife or children have seen his violence. I guarantee it. They know what’s coming. The boy grabs his mum when she throws the phone out to this man- because they know how he will flip his lid at her defiance. When he comes at her - all he can see is the woman and he’s coming to kill her if he can. The children are just objects in his way. All they can do is block the force with which he gets her and he still knocks her out cold. He takes his son and daughter down too. Without care or thought. No regret afterwards. He’s coming forwards again. The speed with which the boy is back on his feet tells you it’s not the first time he’s seen his father like this and he knows what he has to do. There is no shock reaction to delay the boy as would be the case if it was the first time a boy had to defend himself or his mother. He gets straight back to block his way. This is a terrible thing to observe for people who never see this sort of abuse because “behind closed doors” is suddenly exposed in full. A man like this terrorised his family in public. There is no alternative story. I hope that they the woman and children not redrawn as complicit - as some sort of low class villains who all deserve each other. There is only one villain in this piece. It’s him. That man needs locking up for a long time. Preferably in Turkey. His family need removing to safety before they feel the pressure to accept his apologies. They will undoubtedly worry about how all their lives will change if he is locked up. They might not immediately see this as a positive so they need a LOT of support. These are traumatised children and a desperately abused woman and all have a lot of recovering to do. I hope one day they are all free of him. This really hit me in the gut. Watch with care please.
