See my post #130
Not in this case .
The guy took off and got remarried within just over a year .
She was left alone to deal with the messy kid and even the other son ran off .
That is what happens in situations with a mentally ill kid who is dangerous and very hostile .
Everyone gets burned out and flee once they see a chance .
Dad had not seen the kid in over a year ! He ran which is normal with
Schizoid child .
They are never ending drain .
My on laws / relative has one but she is very
Stable and takes her meds because her Dad and mom
Are very strict and loving .
We watch her so they can vacation every few months .
You don’t think this lady needed a vacation from this kid but
There was no one to watch him !
