[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 627772, member: 831"] Jeanne, I'm stunned reading about your daughter's betrayal and the trauma and despair you have had to endure. You've gotten a lot of great words of support so far. I'm in awe how you have been able to unravel it all. This jumped out at me: As a child raised by a sociopath father, if your daughter is, indeed, a sociopath, she will not feel "love" for her children. It doesn't mean she will be abusive or neglectful, but there will be no love felt on her part. She is incapable of it. The world, and everyone in it, is about serving her needs and wants (as you are so painfully aware) and this WILL include her children. Hopefully, your sister in law will provide a barrier between her and the kids. That she stole from you while projecting the ruse of helping you demonstrates the degree of what she will do to get what she wants. My father stole from me and even served me up as a sacrificial lamb when he was under investigation for tax evasion. It's a long story, with ties to his business when I worked with him for a while. It was one of many traumas that man put me through. I suppose I share this because a sociopath almost never changes. They simply don't think that anything is wrong with them and because they are incapable of guilt or empathy, people that are in a weakened state are highly vulnerable to their cunning schemes. I simply was desperate for my father's love. Once I had children I became unless willing to be involved with him. Finally, he lied to me once too many times, and I said "no more". I did not see or speak to him in the five years before he died and I felt nothing when he did die. Sociopaths are like sharks in a sense, they are highly sensitive to the smell of blood. It just takes a couple of drops in miles of water. I absolutely know that if my Dad were to come into the knowledge that I had any money, his only thought would be how to get his hands on it. I couldn't count all the people, family and friends, he swindled, ripped off, and stole from. I'm sorry for the reasons why you are here, but I am glad you have found us. [/QUOTE]
