Baby [Grand]mama Drama

It usually takes quite a bit to get me upset but last night I was fuming. I was driving home after work when Tary called me to tell me that she was in a fight with her parents about her brother's lack of consideration for other people and how the parents' enable his behavior. Tary's father once again overreacted and said that he never wanted to see her ever again...

Let me take a moment to provide some background information. Tary's teenage cousins K (16-years-old) and P (14-years-old) came up from Florida to stay with Tary's parents to escape the stress of their situation there. K and P's parents and their brother remained behind to tend to a local business. K has her own room because she's a teenage girl but P shares a room with Tary's brother, B who is nearly 30-years-old. Last week, B locked P out of the room they share because B wanted to [talk?] with his new girlfriend. P had to sleep on the floor of the hallway. Earlier this week, K got into an argument with B because of how inconsiderate B was to her brother.

So last night, Tary was talking to her mother about all this and Tary's mother got defensive about B. Tary's mother said that B was allowed to make mistakes and that K was wrong for defending her brother.

Then Tary's father chimed in by saying that B was his son and that K and P were NOT his kids. He basically blamed K for causing friction within the family and threatened to send the kids back to Florida. Of course Tary was upset by this and continued to tell them that they were wrong for allowing B to just do what he wants. Then Tary's father completely overreacted and yelled that he never wanted to see Tary again.

And that's when I got the phone call. I was suppose to meet Tary there for dinner but she tearfully told me that she was driving back home instead. It breaks my heart to see her so upset.

So where does that leave us? Well, I am furious at her side of the family. The crazy thing is that Tary's parents still think that B was right and that K and Tary were wrong for sticking up for P. Tary's mother called some other family members and they tried calling Tary to tell her that she was wrong. The most messed up thing was even P's mother called Tary and would not defend her own son!

I really hate that it has come to this. I would love to forgive and forget but I'm sick of Tary's father acting like a bully, especially to the females in the family. He is always especially hard on K. Tary is my wife and I will always fight to protect her in every way I can. Daniel doesn't need to be exposed to this kind of foolishness.

Tary's father is a heartless coward. It's not the first time he's kicked Tary out. He wants to act tough and say crazy things but he will regret those words. He said he never wants to see Tary again. Well, he'll soon realize that also means he won't see Daniel either. He said forever...and forever is a long time.
