    Dad getting married : Treats her bad !
    Hia.. x

    My dad is gettting married in November to his girlfriend...
    But he doesn't treat her very well and she's a lovely girl !

    He doesn't beat her or anything he just says
    E,G... If me and my sis went to go for tea at his house he would say aww laura take the kids home while he's lounging on the sofa ?

    He gets drunk in the house with all of his mates and she's in the house with a bunch of drunks !

    And she went out tith my mom for a drink and he was getting drunk then and the pub isn't far from there house and he said I isn't walking you down there so my mom had to walk down with her
    Any Advice?? Please

    I feel SORRY for her!! :confused:

    Did he treat your mom like that?
    Since it sounds like you mom and her are friends with her maybe you should get her aside and have a nice conversation about how she sees herself in 5 to 10 years from now with him being the way he is. Don't make it sound like you are bad mouthing him or trying to talk her out of it cause that would only cause resentments and problems.
    Maybe a night out with the girls and talk about men, alcohol and being ordered around in general.

    I have kids and I have nieces and nephews and grandchildren, it's not easy watching someone you like or love not being treated very well but, in all honesty, there is nothing you can do about it especially if they just don't see it. What you can do is be there for her, be a good friend and encourage her to get out lots and to take care of herself so that she will be strong and able to deal with whatever comes along.
