Does The Mother Of My Son’s Girlfriend Have Any Right To Judge Me For “letting” My Son Beat On Her Daughter?

By business answers Posted in: Business

My son and his ex-girlfriend Kaleesha are 25 years old, they have been together since high school. Their daughter just turned 7 years old on January 5th, and they also have a son together, he’ll be two years old in June. I’m aware that my son has been cheating AND beating the mother of his kids for years. But I chose to mind my business because they’re both grown. I got other things on my plate. I have mortgage, bills and car insurance to pay. I also have a 19 year old, a 15 year old and a 10 year old to raise. I’m a single woman and I work hard to make ends meet. I’ve ALSO been letting my son and his girlfriend live in my house for over 6 years. Kaleesha’s been living here when BOTH of my grandchildren were born. It was crowded in my house and Lord knows it rarely ever stayed properly cleaned but I dealt with it just like I dealt with all the fighting and arguing between my son and Kaleesha. Plus my younger kids all have issues too with school and their behavior. Look, I was just damn stressed and this is what I get for being nice to folks.
Last year my son’s girlfriend Kaleesha finally earned her associate’s degree. It took her five damn years to finish a 2 year college but she did it, so I’m happy for her. Before the new year came, she was hired as a substitute teacher. Once she got that job, she took my grandchildren and left my son one day while he was at work. My son was angry and he started making threats so she filed a restraining order on him. I just told my son to calm down and don’t do nothing stupid. I told him to let Kaleesha go and make a life for herself. I was nice enough not to press her for any money after 6 years of living in my house. Kaleesha is staying at her mother’s house with the kids. MY SON helped me pay bills, Kaleesha never gave me a DIME. But at least she went to school I’ll give her credit for that. Kaleesha’s mother’s on social security and food stamps. This woman had the nerve to send me a email cussing me out and calling me names and harassing me for not stopping my son from beating her daughter. This is coming from the same woman who kicked Kaleesha out when she got pregnant! I took her in right away out of love for my son. I will go over there and whoop that woman’s behind but I’m 47 years old. I should be past nonsense like that. That’s why I’ve been single for 8 years because I don’t need no man and all that drama. I’ve been beat and cheated on too. I’m DONE with it. Personally, I think Kaleesha’s momma is trying to benefit off of whatever little but of money Kaleesha will be making with this sub-teaching job. I hold my own weight and don’t depend on no damn body. But everybody wants to ask me for favors and I’m too much of a sucker to say no. With that being said, do you think I handled things right these past several years or am I missing something? How could Kaleesha’s mother be right?

    You did good in letting them stayed in your house but you were too soft . They didn’t helped around , they were always arguing , they didn’t pay for anything , they didn’t went to school and you have to take care of them when they were grown . I would of put rules right up and if they weren’t been followed I would of kicked them out of the house . Is not fair that you are doing them a big favor and they are not helping you with anything and instead they give you headaches . I think you shouldn’t of let the took advantage of you . You should of helped them look for their own place and fro there they take care of their business . They were disrespecting you in your own house and on top of that you have children to take care of . Next time this happens don’t let them stay in your house . Its their responsibility not yours . And her mom should not blame things on you instead she should thank you for giving a roof to her daughter . If anything Kaleesha should of responded when your son hit her . She should of done something for herslef and her children and not take it for 6 years . You son need help . Tell him he can go see a psychiatrist to see if they can help him get thru all the anger and depression . Right now you need to focus on helping him because he’s going thru a rough time and needs support . Help him and hopefully he will change and become a better man and son .

    Tell her mother to get a life and mind her business she is probably getting more asistance since her daughter is living there more welfare and more food stamps.

    The live in your home and you allow abusive behavior and actions in your home? You are not right.

  4. Anonymous Says

    You were aware of abuse and did nothing?
    Lady, we are all judging you.

    It’s not a matter of ‘right’. She has a point, and so do you. Yours just takes longer to read.
    Maybe the thing to do is move the hell on and stop obsessing about all this and get yourself a life that doesn’t include whining on the internet.

  6. DM Says

    I’m sure you did the best you could but really he shouldn’t have beat on his GF. No matter what and of course said so.Seeing how you know what it’s like. But no her Mother can’t say anything because she was of no help. Just forget it and move on. Be a good Grandma to your son’s kids and be happy to move on and get the drama out of your house.

    No one should ever tolerate domestic violence, ever. Because of that, everyone is at fault, not just you.
    Kaleesha should have left your son after the first slap. She should have taken her kids and left.
    Or
    She should have called the police, had them toss him in jail for a bit.
    Or
    You should have let her stay and thrown your son out.
    Or
    Her mother should have taken her daughter back years ago. You think she never knew Kaleesha was getting smacked around?

    You want to press this girl for money for back rent or something because your son was too much of a bum to get his own place for him and his wife and kids? You put up with the arguing and fighting between your son and his wife while he was beating her? You want to go fight her mamma because she cussed you out for letting your son beat on her daughter? You think you are the injured party here? Lady you are one piece of work.

    After reading this, I’ve gone from pro-life to pro-choice.

  10. CindyLu Says

    not really. you raised your son in a way that led him to become an abusive jerk. but she raised her daughter to fall for such a man.
    honestly, you need to kick them out of your house. if they are unable to provide for their children, call cps and have the children removed and seek custody should you choose to.
    sounds like a lot of poor choices from everyone involved

  11. El Kapitan Says

    Your lucky that’s all kaleeshas mum did If I was her I would beat the crap out of your son. How can you stand by and not do anything of course it’s your business that’s your f’d up son.

  12. **ek** Says

    I think you are a troll with a vivid imagination.
    Because, no real woman would accept another woman being beat in her household.

  13. Melo Says

    You know she is right. HOW DARE YOU ALLOW YOUR SON TO ABUSE ANYONE – in your home? Knowing it was going on – simply because they are adults – YOU ARE HIS PARENT – YOU RAISED HIM – HOW DARE YOU?
    HOW DARE YOU – allow it to happen – knowing it was going on? IN YOUR HOME – with GRANDCHILDREN LISTENING – you are sick
    SO, just so you know, that your children will live like this, too. YOU didn’t stop it. YOU ALLLOWED IT TO HAPPEN. Your grandchildren will go through the same HURT because YOU chose to ignore it.
    HOW WOULD YOU FEEL, it being done to you? HOW DARE YOU – ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN!
    so when your grandchild gets beaten to death – and no one in the house does anything about it – how are YOU going to react? hey – they are both grown . . .
    I hope you get this LOUD AND CLEAR. How could her mother be right? LISTEN YOU PSYCHO – if yoru daughter was being abused in your home – you’d remove the ASSH*LE doing the damage right? If your son, THE ONE YOU RAISED – is being as assh*le – it is still your job to check him.
    GROW UP. … THIS DOES HAVE TO DO WITH YOU
    YOU live with your guilt – I would NEVER stand and let it happen -EVER – TO ANYONE

  14. Ann Says

    First off, you sound like a c*nt… Secondly, no woman deserves to be abused by ANY man, no matter the situation. Good for you, you gave her a home where she fears for he well being. I’m sure she appreciated that. You didn’t do her or your grand kids much of a favor allowing their dad, your son, to abuse their mother. Clearly, you have no idea how to raise children/grandchildren. They should throw you in jail with your son for allowing it to happen.

  15. mmm Says

    Let me get this straight… Your son beats the mother of his children for 6 years and then gets angry and when she leaves? what the hell is wrong with that BOY?And YOU! let him do it right under your nose and in your home.ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. I don’t give a rats @ss if he was my son first time he layed a finger on the mother of MY grandchildren he would have found himself sitting in the county jail and no place to live when he got out. Never once have you shown any concern what this might have done to those grandchildren having to see their mother get abused by that boy. Your son the BOY should of paid you to help pay the bills she was going to school. You seriously think Kaleesha’s mom is gonna benefit off her daughter sub-taeching job? How ignorant are you? by the time she takes care of those kids and try’s to save to get her own place for her and the children there’s not much left. And she should help her mom for helping her out I have a feeling that boy of yours is not gonna help take care of his kids. You are so wrong on so many levels and your just to ignorant to even begin to understand.Regardless of what you think like or dislike about Kaleesha any body that would try to bring harm to the mother of her own grandchildren is just as sick and IGNORANT as the abuser.Look the word IGNORANT up .

    You willingly turned a blind eye while another woman was being beaten, IN YOUR OWN HOME.
    That makes you as big a piece of shlt as your loser son. Yeah.. Loser. Because REAL men don’t hit women. REAL women, don’t sit back while other women are being hit…
    Stupid bltch.

    You’ve sacrificed a lot, but it was wrong of you to allow your son to beat his wife. You should have sympathized with her a little bit more – you said you were beaten too. I think you can actually be charged for allowing it to happen.

    You both are to be judged. Families views towards not getting involved in others relationships. Is because if they do and after all that drama has happened. What’s the use if the couple are still going back or still be with eachother. Don’t feel bad if you did help out and stepped in they would’ve been still together after all that drama. From the looks of it is that your son’s girlfriends plan was just to stick around till she earned her degree. Enough to support her and her kids. But if the case was that the abuse was going on when you were not there. That’s when you couldn’t have done nothing about it. What did his girlfriend expect from him if the case was that his father abused you, what makes her think he wouldn’t be abusive towards her. It’s a cycle of life and it sucks. If they were suffering that much especially with the kids seeing that. You should’ve done something about it. You should of saw it as a cry of help. You as past victim of abuse should’ve helped her and the kids. Have your son move out and live his life as the decisions he made. He’s only causing you problems. As for you you did the right thing in taking in the girl and your grandchildren. When her mother turned her back on them. She’ll never get those years back. As for you stop being nice it’ll only bite you in the ***. You can’t trust no one. Not even your daugther in law she obviously didn’t have enough respect for you and appricated what you did for her. Don’t feel guilty its your son’s girlfriends fault she went through that because she’s stayed in that relationship.
