Entry: Sam's been switched. With that young man he... yeah. I was rather... harsh with him. The other one, I mean. Why can't I accept him? Sam likes him. He's not going away.
"Yes. He is. And he's willfully ignorant, I think. He's...well, your son hasn't asked my opninion, and I hate gossiping...but there's a good reason I told him to get the hell out of my home."
She takes a deep breath before answering, and when she does it's very quietly. "He doesn't care how much he hurts people, so long as he gets what he wants. He tells people just enough of what they want to hear to string them along, and then gets upset at them when they're hurt. That's...it might be accidental. He might honestly not know any better. But it's still painful at best, and abusive at worst. And I couldn't put up with it anymore. I couldn't stand the thought of his coming to me and expecting me to make everything better when things fall apart again.
"And they will. He's got no business being a father to anything. The children he thinks he's going to raise...well, they're not turning out so well. Beth, last I saw, was a complete mess. Cax is a wreck. Nearly everyone he's claimed to love has ended up broken, miserable and with their life completely fucked up..."
She pauses a moment before continuing. "Of course, this is the opinion of someone he passed over, and I'm probably not being entirely fair."
