The In-Laws... Chapter 2
Over this past Easter weekend, the In-Laws invited the sister-in-law over for Easter Dinner. She didn't attend because her brother was going to be there. At this point she is currently only mad at her brother... her reasons: 1.) He kicked her drugy friends out, and locked the gate so they couldn't get back in. 2.) While the brother was there locking up, he found her "stash" and flushed it.
Because of all the recent activity, the In-Laws decided to have another "intervention" with her. They were going to give her the option to move out with them, or clear her act up herself. Well, currently she was on an upward swing and had all these ideas of cleaning up and getting a job and blah, blah, blah... I don't know if the In-Laws totally bought it, but they decided to not pursue any further action. That's not to speak for the brother though.
The brother has notified Child Protective Services. He told them the entire story, and they told him there wasn't enough to build a case against her. I couldn't believe it. In York, PA... CPS will probably show up if you yell at your kid too loudly over the phone... Anyway, he was told that the more reports they got about her, the better the chance that they can do something.
Here's the kicker... no one else wants to do anything. Reason... they think that if they report her enough to get CPS involved, they will remove the child. Well, no duh. They are
hypothesizing though that if the child is removed, she will commit suicide. Which is a definite possibility. I guess everyone's taking a backseat right now and are waiting for the next bit of drama. More to follow...
