im so sorry for the Bio Mom wank spam. im trying to cut them. :P this is the last one unless she manages to do something exceptionally infuriating. which, she's still in contact with some members of her family, so in a small amount she could. but whatever.

i respectfully disagree,not that Tanja's not more than able to speak for herself.while all of this may be a side effect of her mother being unwell,it doesn't excuse all the havoc she's wreaked.And if it all comes down to her being in need of mental help,the onus is on her to get it instead of continuing to damage people around her.It's wonderful that you've been able to find Frith with your father,but Tanja has given her mother multiple opportunities over the years and it's Judy who cannot commit to keeping Frith.
And while some of what Tanja wrote to her might have been intentionally cutting,i think it's better to let it out than to have it fester.perhaps it could have been done better but everyone has limits.if that's how she chose to finally find her power and stand up to her mother,that's just the way it went.
i appreciate that you can empathise with the situation and are speaking from a place of wanting to share what's worked for you.i just think that there are many roads to any chosen destination,and not everyone can walk the same one.

actually, if the pressure is on anyone to ensure Judy gets the help she needs, it's her husband. he sees her every day and, provided he's even half as intelligent as he seems, should be able to recognize when there's a mental health issue.
but you never know. i'm pretty sure i'm crazy but john insists i'm not. XD
