Some fathers have a different way of parenting. Clearly, us strangers, do not have an idea of whats really behind this. This is family crisis, in which I pray and hope that the family alone learns how to come together and solve their issues. The father seems like he is under a whole lot of stress (His family side-- and his own daughters not liking each other... and God knows what else ---maybe work?) Every family has problems and I think the best thing is to stay away from their problems if you are not considered family. Just imagine how much apart the family will be destroy to find out that so and so's friend called the police on the father-- he can possibly be charged and taken away? Oh man, it's gonna lead to a lot of ugly scenes... it's just going to add to it negatively. But that's just how I see... Hope the family learns to cope with their issues... I'm sure they love each other-- but right now it's tough love that the family alone needs to learn to communicate in a 'positive' way to end the problems for once and for all. How about giving your friend some tips to talk to her family? Get them all together' you know?
Anyways, Let's just pray and hope all the best for the family... I know it must be extremely tough, My family had their ups and downs, but love is there to bring us together. Trust me, my fam has been through worse than this. |
