Last Summer

It was becoming clear to me that my daughter had fallen in love with this young man. I was not pleased about this at all. She always seems to gravitate to misfits. I did like this young man and had he come from a normal family. Things probably would have worked for them. As I said , my daughter is not attracted to normal teens, if there is such a thing. This young man came from a very troubled back ground. He was born to a woman who had very serious substance abuse issues. he was taken away from her when he was an infant. I don't know if he was in foster care or adopted. He does suffer from ADHD. He also has angry problems, which was why I felt it was a bad idea for him to be a nanny to the little ones. I was afraid that he would lose his temper and physically abuse them. He got rough with my Daughter, just kidding around but left bruises on her. He was always very sorry. My daughter always made excuses for his behavior. I always told him what he did was wrong and reminded him that the male members of our family were protective of my Daughter. If any guy had left bruises on me as a young women, my Father would have killed him. I am no different then my Father.
