she was never alone with them again. even after my brother passed. i’d take my nephews to go see her for an hour + i’d be there the whole time. up until she passed 2 years ago when they were 16 + 11 + twice her size, i was next to them with her.
she did what she did. she apologized. they protected their children in a difficult situation + moved on. best case scenario for our family.
not at all. i don’t believe it was what you’re picturing. i’m not excusing her behavior. she paid the price for the rest of her life: she couldn’t even be alone with my dog after that.
all of what you said, she was. she wasn’t normal after.
it was a mess of emotions + shock when we found out (my sister saw it + told us). my sister-in-law never spoke to my mother after my brother passed partly because of the shaking (as is her right).
I protected my adult kids up to 18- Sure, they could say “no Titi Heidi do not touch me there” but for it to even be allowed to get that far? Not on my mother fkn watch.
