A little history on D19. She hit her mother on two previous occassions while I was in Iraq. This was after she came back from a school for troubled kids, after we pulled her out of public school because she was so alcohol and drug involved.
On one occassion, she gave STBX a bloody nose. Yesterday was the THIRD time she put her hands on STBX.
This was while we were paying for a therapist and a psychiatrist.
When I returned from Iraq last July, D19 moved into my little place with me, because she could not live with her mother.
One weekend when I met some of my friends from Iraq, she had a number of kids in my apartment, and there was a lot of drinking. Vomit on my bathroom wall attested to that.
I told her how I felt betrayed and how dangerous it was if for instance, a kid was sitting on the windowsill of my apartment, and tumbles nine stories.
This past weekend was the SECOND time she did it. She had a key from last summer, and knew I would not be home. When I called her on it, there was no remorse, no "I'm sorry", all I got was " What do you want, I had a few kids and we had some drinks before WE DROVE 30 MILES TO ANOTHER TOWN!"
She manaaged to get herself transferred to the best public college in New England; UCONN. She has (or had) it all going for her.
3x HITTING STBX + 2X DRINKING PARTIES AT MY APARTMENT + NO REMORSE + DISREGARDING THERAPIST = A NEED TO HIT ROCCCKKKKKKK BOTTOM. She needs a good kick in the as$ at this point. SHE IS A CLASSIC ALCOHOLIC; IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE: ME, STBX, THE EASTER BUNNY, ELVIS, BILLY MAYS, THE SHOOTERS ON THE GRASSY KNOLL!
oldtimer: When I was in Iraq, I posted for some advice about D17 who had (has?) a severe eating disorder, and it was removed by the moderator (I can see why), but I was in some need of some realy virtua support from my old friends here!
I remember Barb ranting about the moderator taking it down! (That was awesome!)
