Kaley, you wanted to respond to what your mother said.
Freeloading? Freeloading?
When have you ever paid for anything in your life?
I've been on my own since I was 15 years old.
Fifteen.
I've been doing this for a long time.
This is disgusting to me.
And you love us kids?
What is wrong with you?
What is wrong with you?
You have never been there for me.
I was there for you,
I went down to Florida to get you
because you were staying in your van.
After I gave you money to get a place, did I not?
Not once, but twice.
That's right, you did.
You did.
Okay.
And you were still in the van
and then me and Patrick went down there
and got you and brought you back.
Got you out of harms way.
I'm not the perfect mother.
Okay.
I've made mistakes.
(whispers unintelligibly)
You say this like, "Okay, fine."
No, I'm just not having it.
What do you- what does that mean?
"OK fine."
that is dismissive,
it's condescending,
and it is really hurtful to them
when you just give them the back of your hand.
Did you or did you not,
just within the last few months pull a gun on her?
I didn't pull a gun on her.
Was there a gun pulled during a conversation?
I pulled it on- I pul-
What the hell's going on when you're pulling a gun,
don't tell me this is all in the past,
when just last Christmas Eve
a gun is pulled during an argument.
It was for me and I-
She says your drinking a liter of alcohol
every three days, that your doing Hydrocodone and Xanax.
When was the last time I took a Xanax?
It doesn't matter.
Should I be able to- like I should know those questions.
Because we don't know what you're taking
when you're taking pills.
We don't know.
Do a hair follicle.
For Xanax.
I have not taken a Xanax in a while.
You get so defensive. You get so defensive about it.
Because I'm not doing it.
And you don't take Xanax?
No, I don't,
not anymore.
Not now right?
But you did.
This is called deflection.
You start talking about the drugs that she's doing,
she accuses you of doing drugs,
you start defending yourself.
Now she's got you talking about you instead of her.
Bottom line is I want the help.
With what?
Everything.
That doesn't work for me.
The addiction on alcohol,
the addiction on pills
I thought you weren't taking pills?
I'm not, but if they're accusing me...
So don't condescend to me.
I'm not trying to do that.
What do you mean you want help on everything?
You're not taking pills but you want help with pills?
I just want my relationship back. No.
I want my relationship back with my kids.
You're a phlebotomist right?
Yup.
Did you have to get some clean urine in order to qualify?
Uh, no.
Didn't you purchase urine?
Yeah, but I didn't use it.
You can't use it because it's temperature- it's-
you have to have a temperature on it.
People do it all the time.
But you bought it.
Yeah I did.
Which means you needed it.
Yeah, 'cause of the marijuana.
The video that everybody-
When Patrick was living with his mother last year,
he video taped her behavior.
This is when she said she was tired.
(video plays)
(pop music)
Mother?
Hello, welcome back to the reality.
(unintelligible)
You what?
You've had so much money.
Sherry?
Sherry?
Sherry?
Sherry?
Sherry?
What?
(slap)
Ow!
You have no idea why we're here?
I know why we're here.
