Economic Abuse

I believe the offer of buying SC a home in London was contingent on her marrying CC with June pointing out she was doing it for the benefit of the twins.

Another example is June wanting to arrange a break for Sheila with a Christian community in Bournemouth.  Why not say to SC 'Maybe a break away would do you good.  Do you want to find something and I' ll treat you'.

JB and AE had the same role and responsibilities at OCP but according to JB he received less by way of remuneration.  He raised this with June and was told he could have the same 'When you learn to live properly'.  JB claims this was partly the reason he stole the money from OCP which I'm not condoning but can understand how he might well feel aggrieved without access to a HR dept and June effectivelly controlling the purse strings.

Now you're getting it.

The Bambers’ provided for their children, very generously too — and responsibly

Paid for private education, for their children’s good. They didn’t send Jeremy to private school to learn how to ride a tractor! They were giving him the chance to LEARN, go to university, and make a career for himself..but he was LAZY and couldn’t be bothered to study

Despite that they still bought BOTH Jeremy and Sheila their own properties, cars etc...

If they wanted to control them they’d have tried to have kept them living on the farm!

JB obtained 7 O levels at Greshams.  How many O levels did SC obtain?  JB did flunk his A levels in biology and maths but these subjects would have been useful for a career in farming which isn't just about humping bales of hay and straw around.  There is actually a significant amount of science underpinning it all from weather patterns to the soil.

That would be something you learned hands on.

Where did NB and RB meet and learn their trade?  Agricultural college I believe?

I never said he did.  He grew up on a farm and part completed A levels in Biology and Maths which would have given him a basic understanding of relevant info.

I think he had a genuine interest in growing things evidenced by his cannabis plants!  And thinking money grew on trees as far as his parents were concerned!

Are you serious Holly?  The interest was in selling the drug at the end of it!

No I was jesting but I do think JB had a genuine interest in growing plants and such like evidenced by CC's book where he tells us he and JB shared an interest in growing cacti and visited Kew gardens together.
