WHERE IS THE SONG ABOUT THE HOOMAN WHO LEFFT THE DOG?

 Around mid March 2021, I posted a picture of our dog along with a link to the song Brandy by the O'Jays. If you're not familiar with the song, it is about a man who misses his dog who ran away. Sometimes people can relate to lyrics in songs, some songs remind people of their feelings. I believe I removed the post, I know I removed the comments.

Our daughter wanted this puppy, she assured us that she would take care of him. Elizabeth was a responsible pet owner, she took him to the vet, and purchased the best food for him, toys, and treats with her own money. I didn't want a puppy right then because it hadn't been long since we lost our dog. But I did want my daughter to be happy, so we agreed to allow Elizabeth to get this puppy.

I believed in my daughter, and trusted Elizabeth to honor her commitment to care for this dog. This was just one of the reasons her leaving so suddenly didn't make a lot of sense to us. Out of frustration I did send an email that stated "Since you moved out, and left your dog and birds,we have placed them up for adoption. We are sure they will find new loving homes."

Sheryyll Mourse who is fb friends with Dara Colt, the DeLaire High School teacher my daughter lives with posted this comment "Where is the song about the mother who left the message stating she was going to put the dog into a high kill shelter? Using the dog as blackmail to make your daughter come back home so you can take back over her her checking account shows you are not concerned about your daughter as much as the loss of her income." 

This woman even stated she had a copy of the email. She even said that we probably fed the birds to the cat. How would this woman even know the email I sent existed? She claimed she was going to share it to the world! Do these liars have no shame? No morals?

Here is a short excerpt of an email I sent to the high school teacher our daughter lives with " Your friends claimed that we were taking the dog to a high kill shelter. Remember that? How dare they. The facts are Elizabeth got a puppy in November. She promised to take care of the puppy. We trusted her with that responsibility. The fact is she never asked us if we would continue to take care of the puppy in her absence. She left, abandoning the puppy. That is the reality of the situation. As parents, it was up to us to either continue to take care of the puppy or find him another home. Out of love for Elizabeth, we kept the puppy. How dare your friends twist and turn that into some way to criticize us as parents. That was nasty and uncalled for. You are free to live in fantasy land and make up bullshit that makes you feel good about yourself for what you have done, or you can face reality. The fact is responsible adults don't abandon dogs at their parent's house."

Facts speak for themselves. We never said we were taking the dog to a high kill shelter, or a shelter at all. I am unclear as to how the one sentence email was twisted and turned into a way for this high school teacher's friends or associates to publicly slander me as a mother. My daughter knows that I have never taken any of our pets to a shelter let alone a high kill shelter.

This is an example of how no matter what parents of estranged adult children do or say, they are ridiculed. Pets are abandoned every day for reasons unknown. But when a parent of an estranged child questions why, somehow this is wrong? Somehow it is twisted and warped as a weapon against parents?

I do find it sad that my actions of sending that email to my daughter was somehow twisted and turned in such a manner. This isn't even logical at all, it is twisted. No wonder my daughter doesn't communicate with us, why would she? Are these people brainwashing our daughter against us? If the high school teacher my daughter lives with has fb friends did this publicly, what else could be going on? This is the reality of the situation.

Many parents go through similar situations. It is difficult for parents to accept that their estranged adult children are surrounded by people who influence no contact, no communication, and twist things in such a way to make these adult estranged children think the absolute worst of their parents. Many parents live with this grief and heartbreak everyday.

Other quotes from the person "Really? Is that why you left her a message that were taking him to the shelter to be put down?" when someone replied they hoped it wasn't true she replied "Unfortunately it is. She's keeping a copy of the message" Then this same person said this about our daughter's birds "Yes I'm waiting for the message that you've released them into the wild or fed them to a cat since you are threatening to kill her dog."

What is a parent to think? Dara Colt has our daughter at her home, and know if we send messages to our daughter? Is our daughter being controlled by Dara Colt? What conclusion are we to come to? does Dara colt have others do her dirty work?
