Gfg update -- updated heard from gfg I haven't posted in a while because we have been through so many ups and downs I just didn't know what to say. Gfg has been drinking and smoking pot and having sex with at least four different guys every night. She only comes home when she needs a change of clothes. One of the guys she is moving in with next weeks claims he and three other dudes now own her.
I am heartsick and want to throw up.
Nancy

Me -- 66, DH -- 68. Married 43 years. 8 children (6 married), oldest aged 42, youngest (GFG) 25. 23 grandchildren. One grandchild married, and one great-grandchild. GFG is definitely ODD (diagnosed). Officially finished twelve grades, but no matriculation certificate. Worked as a motorbike salesman, did well. Is now in Australia on a one-year work visa.
What on earth does that mean? Does gfg know they are saying these things? I'm sure it's not good but it almost sounds as if they are pimping her out or something.....and if so, can you have them arrested? Good grief, you must be hunting down cases to back you up in court in case you "accidently" murder these creeps.One of the guys she is moving in with next weeks claims he and three other dudes now own her.
Hugs,
Suz
