I just want to SCREAM

I won't rehash my on going tale... but the short version for newcomers is that

1. For almost 2 years, I have raised my xAGF's kids with next to no help from her.
2. Her 14yo son was SEVERELY abused by his bio dad.
2. She has been in and out of rehab for 5 months.
3. She has decided that she is ready to live on her own and that she needs her kids to come live with her so she can be a parent.
4. NO ONE but her believes she is ready.

So she has told her 14yo son that he is going to have to leave what he feels is his home to go live with her.

But then tonight, as a kicker, she tells him that part of the reason that he needs to go live with her is that "he needs a better father than what he has now."

I am the ONLY adult male figure he has ever trusted. He truly thinks of me as his father.

And she goes and tells him... the man you love... is not good enough for you...

I just want to SCREAM. She can think whatever she wants to think of me... I understand that it is quacking.... but WHY ON EARTH would you say that to a kid.... the person you love... isn't good enough for you.

ARRRRRG!!!!!!!!!
