People are entitled to support who they want to.

I'm lucky enough to be able to understand that there's a reason for Helen's behaviour, she is a very sad human being that struggles to live in an adult world effectively, she does feel threatened by other people which is why she goes into gobby mode, the language she uses is acceptable within her friendship circle, i've never heard of anyone being called a slug or a wasp so maybe it's an area thing, and Helen would be my nightmare, but she is not Satan and Ashleigh is not an Angel they are people.

I was bullied as an adult in the work place, everytime by a woman, but i look back at those times and know it was them with the problem not me, they felt threatened by me.

I hasten to add that i always had the last laugh
