Redefining Rough-Housing
Atlanta, GA
On Glenwood Place, a 44-year-old woman said her dog urinated in the house that morning. She said her brother asked her to clean it up, then he left. She said her father grabbed a pan and hit her elbow, causing a deep cut. She said she and her father both grabbed objects throughout the house and struck each other. She had scratches on her neck.
The father, age 78, said he was in his room when his daughter started banging on the door. He said when he answered the door, she threw a glass dish at him. He said to defend himself, he grabbed objects and struck his daughter. The father had scratches on his chest, arm and forehead. He also had an egg-shaped bump on his forehead, an officer noted. Both father and daughter were charged with aggravated assault and battery and went to Grady Memorial Hospital.

The dog pees on the floor and life as they know it is changed forever…

OK so like her brother asked her to clean it up. Since he wasn’t around she had noone else to take her anger about it on, so she assaults her elderly father–maybe she should have gone directly to jail and charged with elderly abuse.

Sounds like this family is from the shallow end of the gene pool.

Damn, Starbarker. I commented on the Yoyo Sisterhood story before I saw this one and your comment.
Dysfunctional doesn’t even come close to describing this family.
