[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 287421, member: 1233"] Marg has a brilliant way of getting to the heart of things. She is right about the brainwashing. How do I know? My parents did this to me as a child. They kept up some of it as we kids were adults. It was all about my bro not being a difficult child and not being addicted or mentally ill. It took them having to deal with my brother's felonies for drunk behavior (even crashing into a HOUSE with a truck he borrowed from my dad!). To my mom there is no bigger sin than driving drunk. Even if you don't kill anyone it is attempted murder of anyone else on or near the street you are on. No joke. As a kid she had to drive her dad around after he got his license suspended for driving drunk. The doctor was a friend and delayed the blood test until it would come up sober. So drunk driving was the major horrible never ever do offense. And he did it. Several times. At one point the cops kept pulling him over and breathalyzing him for any minor traffic violation. They KNEW he was driving drunk, but he is so functional unless he is majorly messed up so he passed field sobriety tests many times. Your husband is brainwashing you. Big time. Sadly it will not help anyone. It will create a more dangerous, more mentally ill, more sneaky difficult child. Your husband is very mentally ill and getting worse by the hour. He knows that difficult child is dangerous, but cannot accept it. so he is brainwashing not only you but your kids and his daughter also. I missed that your son and his girlfriend were potential witnesses to the cops. At this point, you should ONLY believe what you see and hear the therapist and psychiatrist and cops say. Remember that game of telephone, where you sit in a circle and whisper to the person next to you? And it gets whispered on and on, until at the end the person says what they hear and it is nothing at all like what the first person says? Your husband is the entire line of people, and what he says is NOT like anything the other people say about difficult child. I am so sorry that you are in the middle of this mess. Marg has a wonderful way to back off and let him handle difficult child on his own. For difficult child's own good, you should "take a break" and let him not have to live with the possibility of being "set up". Move out and let him handle ALL of the stuff on his own. No record keeping, appointment making, chauffering, NOTHING. ALL of it is on husband's shoulders. he wants to work 70 and 80 hours a week? Well, he has to take care of difficult child also. I am so sorry. I know you care very much. But you also have to put YOUR kids first the way he puts difficult child first. [/QUOTE]
