Dear Hello:

You are welcome. You are a conscientious mother to care about protecting your daughters from exposure to what will destroy their holiday season experience, I admire you for it!

“He’s got a history of manipulating others close to him financially and those closest to him have even told me about it. Even his son said he’s made a habit of living off others since his wife left. His mom warned me of the same. He has no access to my bank accounts which is good“-  yes, it is a good thing. It’s insulting, isn’t it, that he thinks that his words and affectations are enough to woo and manipulate you (“He.. continues to try to woo me with words and affectations“).

I hope you and your daughters have as Merry a Christmas as it can be, under the circumstances!
