Patrick:
My first thought was, where is the grandmother/dad/mom and do they know what's going on? They were not mentioned, so I'll base the answer on I'm the only immediate family left. My Papa was a very respected man. Always helping the community, even when things were tough around the ranch and I spent lots of time (61'-70') hanging out with him and my Nana because my dad/mom were very busy working.
One of the most difficult times in my life was when my Nana died and I watched my Papa just give up. He had no desire to live anymore without my grandmother at his side.
Sorry folks, but this story just brought up some memories I have not had in a long time.

Would I go back?
(I can only imagine) I'm not sure I would have left without a police escort out of the building. Then, I most likely would not be allowed anywhere near the place ever again.
I'd be looking for/needing a lawyer.
Yes, I have anger issues about some things (talking smack about my Papa would be one), and I'm afraid this one would put me close, if not over, the edge.
I'm not a physical force kind of person, never have, but my mouth gets me in all kinds of trouble. :-[

Jackie I had to re read it too.


No, most certainly, I would NOT go back.

hillsbororiver:
Some very interesting responses, thanks to all.

I think you are getting my point for posting this topic, we could substitute Grandfather for Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, spouse, child, dear friend, etc. (But there is even a much bigger substitute we could mention)

Would you fellowship or meet regularly with a person or people who constantly and consistantly made untrue and disparaging comments about any of your loved ones?

His Peace and Wisdom to you,

Joe

Sue Creamer:
Joe,

I know I would not meet consistently with those who would verbally abuse my loved ones, but just because I would stay away from their fellowship is not an excuse to stop caring about them and praying for God's will or intervention in their lives.  When God is ready to show them the error of their ways, it will be done.

What if that Person being spoken of disparagingly was our Lord Jesus Christ?

His Peace to you,
