Steph I don't really know any of her friends and she has kids. I think she wants her elder kids to stay with her and he won't go for it. Probably because they're old enough to know he's a jerk and don't mind telling him. (speculation) I'll check with some of her coworkers at some point and see what I can find out but I'm betting they're all hush hush because of his presence and not wanting to make it worse on her.
