Night and day...
Well, life sent you a clear message, of how it has been like, and the potentials for healthier relationships. How exciting!
On the other hand, what a bad day for your girls / have you considered therapy for them? what a sad situation, if you do not want to see them getting abusive partners in the future, please consider getting them some professional help. (I do not remember if they are already going.)
This is coming from a 31 year old woman who is still sad about being let down by her father and who went through abusive situations in her past.
