Wife and I have a mutual friend. A mother of two boys ages 3, and 5. The husband was on crack, and is now in prison.
Last month she gets in this huge fight with her current boyfriend, and he kicks her out. We go help her move her stuff into storage, and offer a place to stay, which she accepts and moves in.
These kids are out of control, and I find myself regretting our offer to help.
We had hoped she would try and get some state help in order to get an apartment. But it seems that her only interest lies in latching onto a man to pay her bills. (I thought I knew her better than that.)
I guess it's true you never know someone untill you live with them. The other night she askes my wife to watch the kids while she goes out with her new man. My wife laughed at her and explained where she goes, the kids go.
I feel this girl is out to take total advantage of all she sees and everyone she meets. We are too old as cats, to be screwed by a kitten but, I just can't bring myself to kick those kids out onto the street. Killing her is wrong .... right?
Anyways, just venting a bit.
