I'm so sorry Katie is going through this and sorry, for now that you can only watch. I know I would take that young man aside and tell him in no uncertain terms the way it is and the way it will be (my husband wouldn't have the guts).

I will keep you ALL in my prayers. I hope Katie will listen to her sister. If you can just get her away from him for a little while so that maybe she can see things a bit clearer it will help. Sometimes it makes it worse.

Prayers are headed your way Tink, as always.

Oh my goodness, what a scary situation! I am so sorry Tink. I will keep Katie and your family in my prayers. I know it's already your plan, but please PLEASE do whatever it takes to get her out of there. He does not sound safe or stable.

Thanks everyone.
Katie started having cramps this afternoon so went to ER. Thank God her and the baby are fine. She has a bladder infection so was given meds, and is on her way home. Josh took off work to take her in, but his car is a real piece of junk with BAD brakes, so I offered them mine. The hospital is about an hr away in a fairly large city, so it would have been unsafe to drive his car there.

Katie came in for the keys and he waited outside. Once they got done with the Dr, she called me to give me the news, and tell me they're now on their way back here.
I know it's so hard for her that I'm not allowing Josh to come in... but so far they're listening to my advice that he stay away.

I was So worried that all this stress was going to cause her problems in her pregnancy. This was a real scare.

Tink my prayers are with you and Katie. It is so hard to watch your child in a situation you know is bad and can't do anything. I know people can change but my experience is that someone this controlling just gets worse. I hope Katie gets out of there and is very careful.

Oh Tink - my heart goes out to you and to Katie. You know I have had similar issues
and understand how it is to have to stand on the edge of a cliff, not being able to say anything, while you watch your daughter falling off that edge. I will be praying for all of you and am going to light a candle for Katie's situation now.

Tink I am sorry to hear what is going on with Katie and Josh. I hope that God will shed some light and lead your daughter in the right direction. Being a mom it hurts to sit back and not say anything. My prayers are with you.

Tink, I'm glad that Katie wasn't in labor and that the baby's alright. What a scare! Still praying about the situation!

Oh wow, I just saw this. Thank you God for keeping Katie and the baby safe. I hope things get better for Katie and soon. She seems to be a smart young lady..so it may just be a matter of time for her and Josh.
