It is sad, but in a way, funny. The two youngest kids are 18 and 16, so they are pulling the typical teenage crap of gimme what you can. They know how he is, because my son has always been the one to be there for me and my youngest daughter has always been one to stand up to him. Out of all of the kids, she has never backed down to him, she turned her anger on him! It always pissed him off, almost to the point where he even said at times that he was positive she wasn't his, sometimes in front of her! But he would yell at her for something stupid and she would get in his face, either to confront him or to tell him to bring it on old man!! As for my oldest daughter, I am not sure if she is starting to see that he is the jerk that he is. She always knew it, I had to lie to protect her, all of them actually. I don't know if she is mad at me for leaving, but she bought his lies for a bit, and refused to speak to me. Now she is starting again. It might also be because she sees that her brother and sister are spending time with me and they are still alive! I also have a feeling that the kids are having to hide stuff behind his back -again! And they are getting tired again of that. |
"I have suffered from depression most of my life, but had some long, non-depressed times. The last 16 years have been an on-going, constantly worsening nightmare for me medically, socially and with my family. 11/2008 to the present has been the worst time in my life, and new things just keep piling up. During that time I’ve gone from being mostly homebound to being totally homebound due to the errors of about 2 dozen doctors who overmedicated me so badly that I came home w/ 4 conditions I didn’t go in with. I spent months wanting to die, and finding MDJ may well have saved my life. It’s one of the worst feelings to know that nobody on earth needs you for anything; but now that I’ve been a group leader for awhile, there are people here who need me. Thanks MDJ." (Sylvia4648)
