Dad is no bodies friend

8 Replies

He is not grateful for what we do for him, caring. In argument with my mum, he goes don't do the shopping for my disabled son and leave him having noodle which is the main food they (carers) give to him when cooking. Which is unfair to son as we provide cooked food, such as rice and vegetables, fruits and chicken and vegetable curry. We care for Dad and do alot but when it comes down to my son and me is so abusive and neglectful and has always been this way. Although now it is only in language now. He is recovering alcoholic with bad attitude.

Who is supporting and helping YOU in that difficult situation?

in reply to kevinmhickson

Carers support my son at supported living place but I am looked after by the social worker. They dropped my case as I was doing well and could look after myself and my son with the help of supported living place.
