I want to start by saying, I am so happy that I have found a safe space to vent.... Wow!!! Where should I begin?? This has been quite a week. However, the past six months have been even more intense. My dh got full custody of my sd this past September. It was more a less by default because the bm got into a domestic argument with her husband, and her husband struck at my sd and the bm numerous times. After the bm was beat so badly, she went back to her husband, and expressed to my sd who was shaken up by the ordeal that she could not choose my SD over her husband in so many words.
