she is suffering from a lack of a father when growing up. But at some point you have to get past THAT!! I would do a no contact order but what good would that do when she talks to him if he calls.

I know he is abusing her. Mentally for sure, and I am starting to think maybe more. But until she sees the light for herself there is no helping her. She has one friend here who has been through something similar and Lisa shared that with Randa today. I am hoping that will help. the intervention thing might be a good idea. I will check into it. There must be a womans shelter down here someplace.

Thanks for all  your support Girls. I don't really know what I would do if I couldn't talk to you guys!!
