We had a great dad so I don't know how this happened, I can't blame my dad because he was wonderful. Fun to be with, interesting, a great teacher, took us places, taught us to be interested in others and in things in general. Let us know the importance of education and the benefits of it leading to a better life.

Yet my sister lives with an abusive ratbag who she went to court to get out of jail because she had cancer and she needed him. On the way home from the jail, he stole a wallet...I nearly dobbed him in...he is a total loser. They got engaged with a stolen diamond ring...I just couldn't handle the entire situation.

Now my niece who never knew her father is with the 2nd of 2 abusive partners and just had her 4th child to him (the 2nd, her other 3 are to the 1st). I just don't understand how these 2 women have ended up with abusive partners. We had a good dad...what happened?

Sometimes things just go haywire I think
