<p>So, I thought there was some question about whether room and board were covered. If so obviously she should go and would be crazy not to but if not then it’s a little more complicated. Also, it’s very easy to label everything intolerable abuse. That’s more complicated, too. The OP seems to realize this. seriously, in one of her posts she is talking about stuff that happened when she was 8. There are many kids could make a long list of unfortunate parental conflicts but they would not meet the standards for criminal abuse. I agree with twoinanddone and posted because this thread only had one side. Basically, get out now no matter what. Your mom is crazy. It sounds more nuanced than that to some of us. That’s all. </p>
