So sad.
My friend Tonya needs your input!
Please tell her what you think...

(I hope to God that she allows the mother to read all the comments too).

  2. I read her blog, told her who I was and how I came to her page. I also left my own opinion which was pretty much what you wrote plus a couple added tidbits.

    The mother is guilty of abuse...there's no way I can read that blog again as it made me livid with rage.

  3. Hi Sweet Bug!

    Her blog is posted 'everyone' so I don't know what to say about that.
    her top page is kinda screwy though and I had to scroll right to see her blog. Maybe it doesn't show that on your screen?
    Not sure.

    XOXO
    Anne

  4. Thank you Sweet Cat!

    Tonya is so nice and has her hands full enough with her daughter just graduating, and her son starting high school...
    But to think that her sister is SO messed up is just so sad.

    XOXO

  5. Thanks for passing the link Anne! I love hearing everyone's input. I knew I wouldn't be the only one to feel this way and although my sister isn't on multiply, I may just print this out and give it to her or at least my niece so she can read what everyone is saying. I think really that's where I need to focus my support (which I've been doing) to her and just help her get past this and out on her own. If not, her mother will keep her there forever!

  6. Hi Anne! I went over to Tonya's page and added my 2cents worth too. I feel bad for the daughter. Love is one thing but being obsessed is another. My own mother tried that with me and all it did was push us further apart. I left home and moved 840 miles away from her as soon as I could! I was 19 and I was sick and tired of being babied as if I was still 3. She wanted to control my every move as well. I speak very little of my mom but I remember my granny (as mean as she was) with fond memories. She was a hard, cold, strict woman who was the major bread winner at our house but she loved very deeply without overpowering you with the mushy stuff. I think I learned the most in life from her.
