This is all to much to sort out & make sense of. And maybe it's impossible for a rational person to do so...but a couple things that strike me...
If Terri was asking D to take Kyron back, and Des settled with a "it's only a little limit pushing no worries, or he says the same things at our house" excuse from Kaine...I can understand Terri getting upset with D for not believing her, or trying harder or whatever. Who knows what she said to Kaine BEFORE picking up the phone & calling D. I would bet she tried...unless she already knew it would fall on deaf ears.
The other thing that really sits weird with me, and maybe because I have some personal experience on this subject...an alcoholic drinks to escape. Some drunks get violent, generally males, but more often than not, drinking is to avoid reality.
It seems to me that she WAS solving her problem. She couldn't deal so she took frequent trips to another demension to escape it. Her drinking does not sound to me like a support for her possible 'plan' it sounds more to me like pushed up against the wall (whether real or imagined) she found her escape without needing to do more.
It would be easier for me to believe she harmed him, even if she fantasized about it, if she were not drinking to the point of passing out.
Especially as a plan. I'll tell you I heard some pretty ridiculous ideas while facing the drunk in my youth - some seriously warped & outdated excuses for the continuous drinking...not to mention some pretty abusive behaviors WHILE drunk...but when sober...there was little energy or ability to even think. It was more or less, get up, do this, do that, barely interact, and wait for an acceptable time to pour that first glass for the day. This report of her being always 'tired'...supports the drunk report to me...but it just doesn't make sense to me that in this condition she could plot & plan and follow through...maybe she wasn't as adicted, but my recollection is more like...the only persistent thought that could be carried through the day is: when can I have that drink...all else is too much. Keeping busy is good...going to a few stores, going to the gym, anything to fill the day...but whatever the errand, do all that is humanly possible to avoid interaction (liek volunteering).
Whatever though...I'm sure there is much more that we are going to learn...in the end, I agree, it does sound as though Terri was overwhelmed with things and not handling them well at all. And it likely added to her sadness/frustration/exhaustion/whatever that she could reach out and really get little relief...it's sad on way too many levels!
I too would like to see the replies.
