Daring- I am so sorry you have to deal with H's erratic behavior. I agree that MLC breaks that empathy chip and lawyers can be ineffective because the MLCer iis so easily led. I am seeing that firsthand in my sitch.
I think you are right to stand firm. Stay strong and know many of us are sending you our support.
