PP posted that her h has coerced, and confused, her child, by getting her to lie to her mom. Yeah, that is despicable.
Good golly gosh, coersion and gaslighting (which is not the same as lying)...
Such harsh words to apply to this situation.
Words that I didn't see PP post anywhere.
While I agree that her H is incorrect in trying to get his D to cover for him, PP has received some excellent advice from Gabbysmom on her other thread about a way to address this like a rational adult, hopefully without spending thousands on a lawyer.
I do agree that she should get a legal consult to make sure that she knows how to protect herself and her child if she feels the time comes to do that.
Her choice, not mine.

I am not here to lull anyone into a false fog of their own and I never advocate playing ostrich. I fully believe in having your eyes wide open so that you can make clear decisions.
Decisions which CANNOT and should not be made from an angry, reactive, emotional place.
Again, and I will stand by this forever, acting from a place filled with anger does nothing but hurt everyone involved as well as leaves you alone and lonely.
She can teach her D how to do the right thing while still acting with dignity and grace instead of vengence.
It is up to her to be the rock and set an example for her D now.
Geez Kimmie Lee, don't you have somewhere else you like posting better?
