I think a good career is in the cards for anybody graduating from college in marriage/couples counseling with the recent events that have occurred the past couple of days.

You wanna get in between a couple willing to slash/stab each other and/or push them out of vehicles?

Be my guest. I imagine being a marriage counselor doesn't pay well enough to deal with this kind of thing.

That female police officer in Atlanta was recently killed on her first day on the job when she went to a domestic violence situation and a man shot her with a long gun and killed her. It takes guts and a thick hide to deal this stuff, whether that's law enforcement, including dispatchers, or counselors.

No doubt Billie. My comment was not meant to disparage anyone that does it, just more or less confirming that I'm not interested in doing it!

I know you weren't disparaging anyone, and I'll admit I don't have the stomach or heart for it either -- but God bless those who do!
