Another in the continuing saga, soap opera whatever. H shows up at church this morning,(30 minutes late the OW is always late). And he proceeds to walk down to the front row and sit with her and her kids. Whole church is SHOCKED, lady behind me is crying about it and ran and told the elders,<BR>SOMETHING neeeds to be done. My 16 year old son was ushering and he looked so sad . I mean its one thing to humiliate and hurt me in public but what about our kids? The elder I spoke with assured me that he and another are going to counsel with H and OW very soon. Well now everyone is aware that something is going on and its not right. Please give me comments on this. I am concerned H is completely crazy.<P>------------------<BR>joanne<BR>

I can't believe that a**hole! In chuch!! Maybe it isa cry for help. At least the elders are going to speak withboth of them. My heart feels for you.<P>Melissa

morning joann, (((hugs))) this sounds like a nightmare. My heart goes out to you. Is he crazy? Yes, and he keeps proving it over and over again? Maybe temporary insanity? What is he doing? Yikes, hard to figure out. <BR>Is he trying to gain approval? Is he reaching out? Is he being defiant? For some reason the last one strikes a cord...sort of like a teenager that acts up, dresses extravagantly or tatoos and pierces all visible body parts. A statement that he is unconventional? That he is different and should be accepted as such? Saying that he will enter the church, before god and the community and will not be struck by lightening? Strange kinid of public statement. Maybe the elders can suggest he worship elsewhere? At a different time? <BR>Your son must be having a hard time with this too. You should be very proud of him for keeping it all together while ushering. He sounds like a wonderful kid!! <BR>(((hugs))) cl

He is acting defiantly I would say, he is dressing differently has changed his hair style after wearing it the same way for 25 years. All the while telling me he has no extra money to help me pay the bills. When son has joined them on the weekend, they go to high dollar restaurants. (H and OW). It is almost like they are saying, Ok we are wrong, I don't care who knows it or is hurt by this.
