I guess my dislike for her wouldn't be this way if her actions had not done major harm to the kids. Recently, I see a different demeanor from her but I don't trust it just yet. Maybe she's turning things around and what happened is a major wake up call for her. But I need more time to see if this is really a real change or if it's just her way of keeping status quo. Time will tell.
