my parents and it&#39;s hard to watch someone you love putting themselves in harms way and not being able to do anything. ]]></description>

excuses for him and stay.

			<description><![CDATA[ I didn&#39;t really think there was anything I could do. I agree that she has to learn the hard way. But I fear that her learning the hard way may involve her
losing the house or her car or her job or us kids or whatever else might happen. I love my mommy. <img src="http://images.yuku.com/image/gif/e3f255644e72e4e0daa7e86765f1b99d74fa0a1.gif"> ]]></description>

  You can&#39;t. She has to learn for herself, the hard way. Unfortunately. <img src="http://images.yuku.com/image/gif/e3f255644e72e4e0daa7e86765f1b99d74fa0a1.gif" alt="image">

			<description><![CDATA[ Especially when it&#39;s your mother?  My mom has been &quot;helping&quot; her boyfriend for so long now, it&#39;s starting to affect her life.  She brings him
food and cooks it for him.  She brings him beer and liquor.  She gives him money to go golfing.  She pays his bills.  She does his laundry and ironing.
<br>
<br>
She&#39;s so blind to the shit he&#39;s pulling.  He&#39;s never done anything for her!  Never taken her out to dinner, to the movies, never borrowed HER money
when she was strapped.  He rarely works, and when he does, it&#39;s never for long.
<br>
<br>
And now she&#39;s been giving him so much money and buying him stuff that she&#39;s putting herself in debt.  She owes both me and my brother money and
she&#39;s behind on all her bills.
<br>
<br>
I don&#39;t know what to do.  She just tends to snap and recoil whenever anybody brings it up.  I mean...I know she&#39;s lonely.  My dad committed suicide
nearly 10 years ago.  I know she wants someone in her life.  But... ]]></description>
