If you are new to this blog, you may want to read the posts “In a Nutshell” or go to July 2012 and read “Sending out a Letter.” My daughter Emma Katherine Roey lied about a friend being raped and attempting suicide, claimed to have been molested by a priest, and then, just as her attorneys were about to file a law suit, Emma accused her mother (me) of physically abusing her and later of poisoning her with DDT. Emma claimed to have a toxicology report to confirm that her mother (me, again!) poisoned her, but would never turn over this report to my attorney. If you read through the blog, you will find many other examples of Emma’s lying. At one point, she even complained about the way her dad touched her and that he called her a “bitch” and a “slut” everyday. (I refused to listen to her when she talked about her dad like that.) As long as Emma continues with the lies, I will tell her story. Love and thanks to all of you who read and have written to me. If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at: losingemma@gmail.com Please continue to share the blog with others.

Losing Emma 
This is a SHAME …that a mother would try to ruin her daughters life. I would die for mine . Even if it is lies . But it sounds true to me. My Goodness Any mother that LOVES her child would not be so obseessed with a lie ..All kids lie. BELIEVE it or not Most all human lie..Get over it ..Beg your daughter to forgive you for not trusting her .Be a REAL MOTHER…Praying for Emma & you too…
“Most all human lie.” So true, and I think I’ve shown that Emma lies more than most. Most people aren’t going to falsely accuse people of sexual molestation, abuse, attempted poisoning with DDT, etc. Thank you for your prayers.
I think your crazy Lady. You would have to be to spend so much time fabricating such crap about your own daughter.
Ok honey, now get back to your 4th grade English homework.
She clearly spends every day on this. The level of obsession is very scary.
Thank you for your confirmation. I’ve already heard that Emma is quite obsessed with my blog.
This is sickening that a “mother”, one who is supposed to care for and protect her child, is instead allowing her own mental illness take over her ability to properly mother and is using this blog to satiate her unsatisfied need to continue to abuse her child. The amount of anger and obsession that is conveyed is terrifying. This woman is dangerously delusional and it’s pitiful that she lacks the intelligence to appropriately recognize her responsibility in the difficulties her family experiences. I hope this mother gets the professional help she needs, life doesn’t have to be this hard for people suffering from mental disorders.
Dear Frightened and Concerned, Exactly what documentation would you like to see? Would you like to see the documentation that Emma’s friend was NOT raped and did NOT Commit suicide? Would you like to see the documentation from the school administrator that Emma was not drug searched by a police dog? In fact, she was never drug searched at all. Would you like to see the documentation from Emma’s friend that she never had an abortion nor did she tell Emma she had an abortion. Would you like to see the documentation from Emma’s drama teacher that the one act play was not sabotaged as Emma claimed; it was that the Drama teacher’s CD was the wrong format for the player at the competition. Would you like to see the transcript of the 911 call that Emma made when she babysat for the priest who’s bipolar son went out of control? Oh wait, that didn’t happen. Would you like to see the documentation that Emma never babysat for the priest’s children or would you like the church phone number and you can verify this yourself. Would you like to contact Kayla Benifield’s mother Sheree Benifield Barwise to ask her about all the drinking Emma claimed went on at her home or about the story where Emma claimed Sheree threw a fit at Ingles to get a senior discount? Would you like the documentation from the youth pastor who states, no, Emma did not stand up and give her testimony at Walnut Fork Baptist Church, Hoschton, Ga. as she claimed? Or perhaps maybe you can share with me the pathology report Emma claims to have stating her mother poisoned her with DDT? Would you like to see the documentation that states Emma claims to have residual health problems as a result of her mother’s history of poisoning her? If you’ve read the blog, you know I have much, much more documentation. So, which are you? Frightened or Concerned? I will be happy to meet with you anytime to show you any of these documents. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Phill and Emma have my phone number or you can e-mail me privately. Let’s put your money where your mouth is, why don’t we? Contact me anytime.
Or, if this is Emma, I don’t really expect to hear from you, but hi sweetie, how are you?
Oh, and one more comment for Frightened, just as you stated, for 17 years I cared for and protected Emma, but as a parent who would lay down my life for my child, it’s also my responsibility to hold Emma accountable for her actions. Emma accused a priest of sexual assault, and then accused me of physical abuse and attempted murder via poisoning with DDT. I gave Emma the opportunity to keep these matters between herself, her dad, and me. She chose not to do that. She also sent me a drop dead letter basically stating if I contacted her, she would get a restraining order. Emma then contacted me, but when I e-mailed her, I got another drop dead letter. I have no intention of violating Emma’s wishes just as I have no intention seeing Emma take out a restraining order against me. I am still her parent and will still hold her accountable, so the only way I know of to do that at this point is with this blog. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.
I’ve come across Emma several times throughout my teenage life, and I believe everything this mother has said. Emma is snotty, rude, vindictive, and is known to tell lies. Her mother has gone to great lengths to share these stories. I believe they’re true. She’s just the type to need attention.
Thank you for your comments. I would love to hear more about your experiences with Emma. If you would like to, please email me at losingemma@gmail.com
I will not post to the website anything shared with me privately.
This whole blog is obsessive. You are ruining her life. You have not only painted Emma in a bad light, you have also painted yourself in a way that makes you seem crazy. I don’t know her but I can see why she felt the need to find attention by fabricating stories and exaggerating things. Stop blaming others and take a look in the mirror, you are just as crazy and messed up as you claim Emma to be.
Thank you Claire Boehlke for you comment. I am curious as to why you say you don’t know Emma when you went to Jefferson High School with her and were one of her Facebook friends? Obviously, you did know her. As for being obsessive, yes, after being accused of the crimes of child abuse and attempted murder, I am pretty obsessive about the whole situation and am documenting thoroughly. I think lying about a friend being raped and attempting suicide, lying about being sexually molested, and lying about being abused and poisoned goes just a little bit beyond “fabricating stories and exaggerating things,” don’t you?
I’ve known both you and Emma, and you are amazing. Keep fighting the good fight! Emma is going to sink her own ship one day, and maybe Phil’s too.
Hi there! I stumbled upon your blog today while searching Google for Peachford Hospital. My stepdaughter lived with us and almost ruined our family. Reading your blog is fascinating! I could have written your exact story. I sympathize with you so much and, at the same time, am so comforted to know that I am not alone. Many of our daughter’s doctors feel she has Bipolar Personality Disorder. Call me crazy, but I think it’s much more than that. Especially since so much of our story revolves around the church, as yours does. Thank you so much for sharing your story. People who have never lived with a child who has a personality disorder (or worse!) can never possibly understand how hard it is on parents and the family. It literally rips and divides the family. We held on until our legal responsibility was met, then had to turn her away. We have been met with a lot of criticism, judgement and lies told about us from the child, but we had to make the choice that would benefit the remaining children as well as our marriage. Thank you again for sharing, and God bless.
Dear Mom in the Same Boat. Let me scoot over and make a little room! This boat is getting crowded. There’s quite a few of us on these rough seas. I’m so glad you were able to save your family. I think I understand how you feel about your daughter having more than just BPD. People who know or have known Emma have suggested all kinds of things to me. She’s bipolar, schizophrenic, narcissistic, borderline, histrionic, anti-social, paranoid, etc….. I don’t know enough about these things, and you can see we didn’t exactly have the sharpest therapists working with Emma. Like you, from what I read about these disorders, I think Emma could have traits from many of them. I may not know enough about PDs, but I have 17 years experience of raising Emma, so I know a little about her. From what I understand, a lot of these PDs aren’t an illness, they just are. Emma is what she is. I would like to think she will outgrow this “phase” and turn into a decent human being, but I am very doubtful. I really don’t think Emma can be helped and she’s probably going to continue to hurt herself and those around her. Thank you for writing and sharing your thoughts with me.
firstly if this stuff wasn’t true she would have already sued you and made you take it down – slander and all that
secondly if you had abused her or tried to poison her you’d have been arrested and prosecuted – you haven’t
thirdly – what happened to the lawsuit?
The lawsuit was dropped once Emma accused me of abuse. She knew she had to stop the lawsuit because the attorneys were going to have to talk to her friend whom Emma claimed was raped. (Supposedly this brought up Emma’s repressed memories of being molested.) My husband, Phill then stepped in as Emma’s hero and protected her from her big, bad mommy. He claimed that Emma never wanted the lawsuit and it was all my idea. He let her go around saying I poisoned her with DDT, etc. He really failed her as a dad and me as a husband.
