Very interesting, if true.

The most telling thing (again, if true) is that HER family [/b]refused[b] to intervene when asked to do so by her husband (he alleges).

People don't become alcoholics, bulimics, seriously depressed, etc., for NO reason. Yes, mental illness happens, but there are always warning signs, and if those around you refuse to see them and do anything about it -- finding treatment as a start, well, they are part of the problem.

Her family of origin sounds as screwed up as the Kennedys.

Sad story, but I really feel for her kids. What must they have gone through all those years, and the youngest is only 10. I hope they have trust funds large enough to cover a lifetime of therapy! [/quote]

Her husband asked her family to intervene. They declined. They must have been in denial. I actually feel sorry for him.
- she "boxed" him with a permanent injury to his tearduct
- she was hiding his daughter's belongings to get her in trouble
- she was threatening suicide in front of the children
- she threw spaghetti plates at him in front of the children
- she swung punches at him in front of the children
- she attacked him with scissors in the bath
- she was caught DUI twice
- the police was called to the house twice (?) times, she was so drunk she was incoherent
- the judge apparently agreed that she was an unfit mother and could not even have visitation without athird party present

Anyone would divorce such a trainwreck.
