((Anna)) - I agree, and I told him that. He said she said "F-- you, you SOB, and he slapped her". I don't believe there is any justified reason for hitting anyone. On the other hand, if he goes to jail, Brit gets taken to DFACS, we lose the house, and my stepmom and I are on the street because I can't bond him out. The courts in this county are backlogged for almost a year. The only reason my stepmom isn't still in jail is because we bonded HER out with the house. She goes back to court on the 27th, and dad has to go with her.

He told Brit to call the cops, he didn't care if he went to jail, and in all honesty, I don't know if he does care any more. Brit's mad now, but as soon as she wants something, she'll be as sweet as can be. It's almost like a sick game they play. Brit has hit him, before.

I am trying really, really hard to detach from all this stuff again. because right now I feel like I'm suffocating. There really is no "right" way to deal with this. Doing the "right" thing will put dad in jail, Brit in DFACS, we will lose the house and I will be left trying to find a place for my stepmom and I as no one in her family can take care of her and I will not just leave her on her own. That's reality. She annoys me, but I love her and she is family.

I'm going to try to go back to sleep.

Hugs and prayers!
