Breaking a legal agreement, my mom tried to break into my dad�s house, via the neighbors� backyard. The poor neighbor is so frightened she put locks on her gates and said she�ll call the police if my mom comes around again because she doesn't want to be responsible if something happens to my dad.
I have a headache.
Luckily, my dad and I have been seeing a psychologist, a much appreciated free gift from the government for victims of domestic violence. Wanna know something weird? The psychologist claims I�m normal and in no danger of becoming bipolar.
What?!! Really? I�m sane?
Just my luck. Apparently I�m the only non-bipolar offspring, leaving me the responsibility of caring for the ill. Great. Thanks.
But Mr. Psychologist tells me it�s best to avoid contact with my mom because she is dangerous. I wish he wasn't right.
Thus...
The time has come to have my mom involuntarily committed. Because it�s better than jail, and my dad�s safety is at risk. I just hate the sound of it. Involuntarily. Committed. Hospital.
My mom.
Needless to say, it�s a bit stressful having to do this alone, and it�s not like I have a mommy to run to for advice. It�s the hardest decision I�ve ever been faced with, but I know what I have to do.
