| 168. Her boyfriend is, I think, an alcoholic. |
|
Plus, he goes out to clubs, both the regular kind and the topless kind, and he wants to impress everybody and spends hundreds of dollars buying drinks and getting drunk, himself. He's got more clothes than a movie star and my daughter dresses in almost rags.
He's taking advantage of the fact that I don't want my daughter to go without anything, especially when she's pregnant. And she's letting him.
