Troubled Mom

My mom is suffering from low self esteem and self confidence due to my dad's behavior.

Dad doesn't want to work anymore and wants to do social service. However he has incurred a huge debt already due to business losses and has yet to repay it back.

Mom is very concerned that he may not be able to pay back if he doesn't have any incoming sources of income and might incur additional debt by helping other un-deserving people.

When she raised the same concern with dad, he doesn't want to listen to her and has insulted her on several occasions in front of near and dear ones.

He has called all our relatives and friends and spoken ill of my mother. He also asked my mom's brothers, father to take my mom away from him. He told my mom to leave him, only because she might be a show stopper.

My mom is feeling so depressed and lost. She sacrificed her personal interests and did so much for my dad, but in the end when it was time for him to take good care of her; she is asked to leave.
