[quote=Anonymous]You weren't in her marriage. Based on the timing (30 years in with 3 kids), it sounds like she hung on until she got her kids out of the house. Or your dad could have been a serial cheater. Or their were substances. Some divorced parents are classy enough not to trash their ex-spouse to the kids-- even if the kids are adults. And if you're not an orthopedist, who are you to say she didn't need surgery? And how dare she break her arm-- and then allow it to heal badly? And are you really expecting a 70 something with bad hips and knees to be weeding, mowing and painting? All of which is to say that some compassion is in order. And a reality check-- what do you want her to do, exactly (besides tell you how very wrong he life choices were). BTW-- if she was a federal employee, she should have $$ in TSP and a pension (potentially a nice pension) unless she worked less than 3 years. Your grievances? Not adding up. [/quote]
