One of my daughters does this. He tells her he will take the kids if she tries to leave. Maybe he could. Her fear is real and she adores her kids. I want to get a vigilante group of women together and scare the hell out of him. He's a little wimp ass. But, my daughter will suffer for it. I do not know what to do. I got an attorney and she freaked out. Many women are in her position. My plan is a good one but she will not listen. My heart aches for her as she puts on this smiley face and lives in misery. My grandchildren suffer one way or the other. It's CPS in our state that feeds this fear in women. My daughter doesn't work and was left in major debt when her dad died and left her in a mess as his business partner. I sure hope she does not have to get as old as Mona to leave that bastard. God bless Mona. I hope her life is great but I bet he made her miserable no matter where she went or what she did. Men like that are not happy unless they can put someone down.
