[quote=Anonymous]Call adult protective services in an attempt to do everything to protect her, but I have heard they can be pretty useless. Still, you need to try every avenue. I am not sure you can force her to move out against her will unless she is mentally incompetent. Definitely talk to APS about your options, but it is not as simple as people on here say because you said she is basically mentally competent. You have said he has always been this way to some degree and most likely that is why his family hates him. She has chosen an abusive person while of sound mind and still of sound mind. I am not a lawyer or expert, but have dealt with having to allow a parent to make self-destructive choices while still deemed mentally able by a screener. Reach out to local Parkinson's groups too and see what they say. I think if she refuses your only avenue is reporting abuse, but she could lie and make you out to be the liar.[/quote]
