My son was very happy living with his live-in-girlfriend his daughter and her daughter from her first boyfriend for the last 5 years.Everything was going well until she started going out with the girls and with that came drinking and drugs, after numerous indiscretions he finally left and went to live in Cali to start a new life.I hate her so much she ruined everything.The girls are unhappy now because their Dad is not here with the family now for Christmas.I don't know if I could forgive her for driving my son away from his family and his girls, can you? Please no yes or no answers,and I want to thank you in advance for your response

I'm sorry to hear this dear. But hate will destroy you, let it go. I know you are angry and hurt, and I don't blame you. But for your own health, do not hate. Pray and let God deal with it. Pray that your son will be happy and find a better partner and the children will be happy again. Blessings

I don't think you should forgive her unless she cleans up her life and apologizes to everyone. I do think that you and your son need to remain in those kids lives. I understand your sons need to start over, but he should still be in the kids lives, especially around the holidays. If the girl is as out of control as she sounds, I hope that your son is going to fight for custaday of his own daughter and the one that isn't his as well.
