Pick up the pieces when you go

[Yoyowife]

I went to see a friend tonight. When I got in the car tonight to leave I was in tears. The reason...I hope it's not a sign of things to come. My friend was at her brother's house. We were sitting out by the pool and he got up to take a call privately outside the pool area. Even though he wasn't in our general vicinity we could hear him yelling. His girlfriend got up to go check on him. She came back and said he was arguing with his daughter. The man and his daughter were fighting because he had taken her car away from her because she never makes time to come see him. She lives about 45 min. away with her mother. The man's g/f was fussing about how he pays DD's bills but she is so ungrateful and never comes to see them. She said it's about time he put his foot down. I'm not a rocket scientist, but it doesn't take alot of reasoning to find out why the man's two daughters don't want to visit. The man left his wife for the woman he is now living with. Needless to say I will not be visiting my friend at her brother's house again. The daughters are close to my daughters' ages. They are 15 and 17. Mine are 16 and 19. My youngest daughter has already made the comment to her dad if he ends up with OW she will not be visiting him. How can these people destroy their families and think that they are supposed to get over it so easily?
