what ella did, on top of her refusing to apologize shows she’s not remorseful, making her actions unforgivable.

this puts you in the position of choosing to protect your daughter, or accept her tormentor as family. if your son chooses to stay with her, and you decide to accept her into your family you’re showing that you don’t care about the trauma that she put your daughter through.

make this clear to your son, and if he choses ella, either go NC or accept that you’re showing your daughter that you don’t care about the emotional turmoil she was put through in highschool.

you’ve clearly given her the time and space to make things right and she chose not to. now it’s your time to make a choice.
