[QUOTE="witzend, post: 546274, member: 99"] OMG - are we sisters? Did you forget the part about "You could be saving that money! And I'm sure I saw it sniffing at your kitchen counter!" Let me assure you that anything that they wouldn't have the nerve to say to you when they're sober they would [I]most definitely[/I] have the nerve to say to you when they're drunk. And then some. My mother told me one time, "I never said about anyone, 'I sure like him when he's drunk.' " I think that pretty much applied to my dad, although I don't think she knew how much she was saying at the time. My dad only ever beat us children, so far as I know. I think he was sober when he did. He was a happy drunk who came to great realizations when he was drinking and tried to set them straight when he was sober, which was only every night when he came home from work before he could get his drunk on. I know he terrorized my mom, but she would never leave him. She'd only ever been with him, since she was 13 years old. He terrorized us when we were young, and beat us and called us names you wouldn't call a dog when we got tall. [/QUOTE]
