She and my wife are on the same page.
I used to say that the reason there are more men in prison than women is because when men act out, it lands them in prison, but when women act out, they just ruin lives.
Well, after unbelievable drama with my daughter in law at the full family get together in Chicago, I realize I need to revise that phrase as follows:
There are more men in prison because when men act out, it lands them in prison, and when women act out, it causes their man to act out in ways that lands him in prison.
I slept through the worst part of it, but my wife said she thought about waking me and thought best that she didn’t. It’s a good thing, because I probably would have grabbed her HARD by the arms and threw her on the couch face down and sat on her until she calmed down. And that would have put me in jail because she gets unbelieveably wiry and feisty.
She got a DUI a couple of years ago and ended up being arrested because she fought the police with all her might. She is poison.
She verbally abused her 12 and 14 year old nieces and called them whores in front of everyone. Screamed it, actually. (those are two very sweet girls, BTW) And called her 15 year old son worthless and the only one she loves is her 7 year old daughter, and then said she hated her. And all the other things you could imagine.
But none of that puts you in prison.
A hundred years ago, this would have been easy to deal with, but you can’t use physical force against a crazy woman any more or you’ll get in trouble. So here we are.
Thanks for letting me vent.
Are you sure she isn’t my ex-sister-in-law? She is the same way with her three daughters. Oh they are wonderful, they are great and then you are whores, lazy, worthless. And throw in the physical abuse to boot. The oldest finally went away to college, the middle daughter in her mid teens said to hell with this and moved in with her dad, my brother leaving the 14 yr old to take all this nuts abuse.
Before leaving for college the oldest pulled her nut ball mom aside and told her is my baby sister says you have laid one finger on her I will come home and stomp you into a dirty spot. She is nearly 6’8 and could do it!
The ex SIL is bi-polar and in reality, just plain mean and nasty. How my brother tolerated her is fodder for family discussion as it is claimed by the rest of my family I would have put my foot up her arse or thrown her out on the first day of marriage. I contend I punched him in the head one too many times while growing up is why it tolerated ten years of her insanity. Hang in there man!
