The EX boy friend?

A mom can only hope.  My daughter has told me that the long standing relationship with the internet boyfriend is over!  He is much older than she is, lives at home with his mommy and only recently got a job.  Did I mention that he also has a police record?

What mother in her right mind would approve of this kind of relationship?  I sure didn't.  When she was 17 I tried to keep her away from him.  That didn't work.  I tried being silent about all things concerning this looser.  That didn't work either.  She was constantly talking about him.  Last month she used up 3000 cell phone minutes talking to this guy.  (anyone want to see my cell bill for the month?)

This man has flaunted our house rules and has encouraged her defiance at every turn.  Because of him, she has not finished high school and may get kicked out of the house before she does.  She gets her share of the blame but he gets most of it.  Since she has been with this looser, she has been so different.

Pray pray pray! ! ! !

She is going to make the phone call today.  All of his stuff is either boxed up or thrown away.  As we speak she is deleting all photos of him off of her computer and face book account.

Her doing.  Not mine.  He said some really hateful things to her during their last fight.  She just can't get past it.  Knowing what was said, I can't blame her.

A mommy can hope.

  1. Yes, mommies can. She made the hard decision and even if she decides to go back to him, know that she did it once and she will accept less horses**t the next time and it will be easier to leave and then if will be final. It's hard standing back and watching but it's what we have to do.
    Prayers and hugs. (PS don't gloat) lol

    1. It has been on again and off again so many times. I hope this time is for good. She is in the process of deleting all traces of him from her face book account and setting relation ship status to single. I have hope that this time it is for good. She even gave me her cell to keep temptation away.

      Gloat? not with the tears in her eyes. It makes me want to go to the coast and rip his throat out. He hurt my baby girl.

  2. I'll help you hope.
    I hope it is a short phone call.
    Then, catch her, when she collapses.
    Our daughter had to end two friendships in a row, and both times she got physically sick.

    1. She has been sick for the last 2 months over this boy. I hope she can begin to heal now.

  3. Time and patience.Being a mom is a most joyful and painfully- stress induced life, but what other choice is there. We are always in their corner.

    1. I wish she would understand that I am always on her side. I am mom. No one on this earth loves her the way I do.

  4. Sadly, she won't understand till after, and then shortly after she;ll forget - sigh - the curse of motherhood...wouldn't trade it for the world, though. Thoughts and prayers that everything is okay.
