FSI ~ you did the best you could in this situation...and yes, I do feel so sadly for the children. Maybe, just maybe one day she will learn - but I pray it's before the children get horribly hurt. Tough decisions have to be made sometimes. Your family did what was best. Elyse

FSI
It's sad, but as Corbin rightly said, 'goodbye and good riddance!' And the worst thing your Dad can do is give out 'mixed messages' to the effect that she might be allowed back some day...

Oh, wow, so many thoughts are running through my head on this one. I am wondering how old this woman is...obviously adult aged. I feel for her father...someone, somewhere along the way created this 'yes' mentality by giving her everything and bailing her out when she should've done that herself. This is how we grow 'grown-ups'. With this lady, we just have an overgrown adolescent...and the behavior and ingratitude proves that. I'm afraid her parents have a long row to hoe...but they might have created some of that. Not good. And evictions are ugly, that's for sure. Necessary, but ugly.

What an ungrateful wretch!
At first I wanted to jump to Sandy's defense, thinking maybe her ex was pushing her into this behavior. I'm glad I read the whole piece. If not for the daughter who's caught in the middle, and the father who was trying so hard to make it right, I would have thrown Sandy directly out on her you-know-what.
Good piece!

That must have been so stressful for you ... I am sorry you had to witness it and that it happened at all... but sadly is quite a common thing now a days. Take care of you and thank you for your continued support. I want you to know that I truly appreciate always seeing your name in my blog with words of support and encouragement. Take care of you xoxoxo

It's a shame that all some people know how to do is take
and they still feel that everyone owes them something.

Yes, this is really sad FSI especially for the father and daughter. I can understand your feelings.

The first bill I pay every month is my rent! Her father needs to give her a dose of tough love! She doesn't seem to be held accountable for her actions. She lost her right to live in your rental because she did not pay! Also, I would not let her off for a single dime! You are in business to make money and cutting deals to folks who do not make their rent a priority is a gross waste of your time! Three and a half months behind is inexcusable and irresponsible! sam
