Let's see. I started off in about 1974 pointing out
something was not quite right. Got them to agree to
therapy around 1980, which I flew down for, but which
they terminated, telling the therapist that nothing
was the matter, then screaming at each other on the
way back, each blaming the other for the entire problem.
Then I got them to write a will protecting the kid (big
mistake); then when he hit 21 I tried to get them to
rewrite the will; then when he hit 31. Not a whole lot
more I could have done.
 
 RH> What about extended family?
 ML> They have lives to live!
 RH> And you don't?

They don't have the responsibility - they are and in
general have been as complete strangers.
