Dear Lynne,

I'm so sorry this is happening. My prayers are going out for you, your daughter and your granddaughter.

Counseling is a great first step for your daughter. You might feel better if you did go talk to someone too. It's an awful lot for a mother to handle. I went through very difficult times with my daughter and her husband for several years, so my heart goes out to you.

On a good note, we've reconciled after about 3 years. He has stopped drinking and has stopped a lot of his bad behaviors. Good things can happen.

Love and prayers,

Judy

Thank you everyone for thought's and pray's. I was having a really hard time yesterday, as was my daughter. She finally has an app. today to talk with someone who deals with this sort of thing. I and other family member's have talked till we are blue in the face but she really need's someone other than a family member to help her deal with her feeling. She has such guilt feeling of taking her daughter's father away from them. This is just a messed up situation.
Thank's again for your thought's and prayer's.
Lynne

I wish your daughter could see this for what it is. He is not a good example of a father or husband. Girls look to their fathers to find qualities in a husband/partner...this has been proven in pyshcological studies for years. They also imulate (sp) their same sex parent. So she would be setting a high standard for her girls to not ever let anyone...no matter who it is...to treat them this way. This is not love.

I hope she understands this soon Lynne. She's doing the right thing. His parents must be as crazy as he is to try and get him out. What a group! And don't forget Lynne, just because you can't give her money to get out of dept....you're giving her much more by being there for her.

Just wanted to say I agree with everything that Janet and others have said and will definitely keep you in my prayers. Sincerely hoping that this is all resolved to the best possible solution for all concerned. Lynne, so realize that you are being an amazing mom to her.
