After breaking her leg, a mother expected her husband, Harold, to help with their daughters, but he repeatedly said he could not be late for work. She had to depend on her mother, a neighbor, and a car service while managing a cast and crutches. Then she unexpectedly saw Harold picking up his young coworker, Adele, and realized his explanation about being unable to help with the girls did not seem to add up.<\/p>\n
Harold claimed Adele\u2019s car was being repaired and insisted that giving her a ride was simply convenient. But their daughter Sasha\u2019s school project, titled \u201cPeople Who Help My Family,\u201d revealed how differently the situation looked at home. She described all the things her mother did for the family, while noting that Harold took \u201cMiss Adele\u201d to work because her car was broken.<\/p>\n
The project eventually reached Adele, who was surprised to learn that Harold had not been taking the girls to school before picking her up, as he had apparently suggested. Adele also told the mother that Harold had portrayed his marriage differently at work, claiming that his wife preferred handling everything herself.
