Dear Eric: My husband came from a highly dysfunctional family, which has contributed to his anger issues. I, also, came from a dysfunctional family, but I try to be the peacemaker. My biggest issue is that, when we leave the house, he turns into a road-raging fool. He is so bad that it forced us to cut a vacation short because a terrible, over-the-top incident led me to tears (as usual).
