I think that’s common - I was chatting to my hairdresser who’s daughter (though 18) has learning difficulties. She had to be admitted to hospital for a few days last week and wouldn’t let her mum go home as she was terrified. Instead of offering help, her father kicked off at my friend because he found out E was in hospital from his mother, rather than from my friend. And this was 2 days after she’d been admitted, when he hadn’t even bothered to text E to say he was thinking of her.
