What, exactly, do you suggest they do? chantal is a grown woman, her family cannot have her committed. Unless she commits some heinous crime, no one can force her into anything. She obviously is defiant to any sort of help and has no desire to change. She's not gonna diet, or listen to doctors, if the last 3 years of her on the farms didnt already tell you that. Her family is typical of parents, they cant bear to tell their child to fuck right off, but dont want her in their life for the obvious reason of her being an unbearable oxen, so they enable her addiction just to keep her out of their hair, and this enablement will eventually kill her. The only thing they could do would be cutting her off from their money, but they wont do that because she might starve. No different then a mother that lets her heroin addicted son live with her because he cant stop spending all her money on heroin.
