Today she told me that she wanted to be with Joe and that if I didn’t like it—I should find another place to live. ANOTHER PLACE TO LIVE? I hate her for this. Hate is not a strong enough a word. Over her daughter, she chose a man—a man who beats her in front of her own children, who calls her a whore and a slut. I’m not sure which one of them is sicker? Is it her for taking him back again and again? Or Joe for the way he continues to abuse us?
