[QUOTE="hopefloats, post: 80665, member: 4114"] I'm sorry I depressed you guys. It's just that I feel so frustrated. We have all talked to her about it and she like "I know, I Know!" And then it goes back to the same old thing. The child's father is a bum and has deserted him after the divorce. My sister has always been the rebelious type. Got pregnant when she was 15 married babies daddy at 16. He ended up an abuser who manipulated the judge to get custody of their daughter. This destroyed her. I have to say that she has had a very rough life but most of it were from choices she made. My nephew is now 8 years old. He is hurting so bad inside but she's hurting from her divorce also. Her answer has always been to go out a party when things get rough. She doesn't use drugs, drinks but not too much. She's a good mom as far as food, clothing, ect.. Her view is that she's a single parent, she works all day picks him up from school, they go home and go their separate ways. She gets on the internet for the rest of the night and he's playing play station, watching movies, skateboarding in street at apartment complex ect... The weekends are spent out partying for her and him at a babysitter. He doesn't get the emotional aspect he needs. I'm just worried because he's already way out of control, I couldn't imagian what he's going to be like in ten years. [/QUOTE]
