I think it's her son, not daughter.  There are plenty on indications.
And a daughter would likely move out if it bothered her.
Men more easily live in a mess they can blame on somebody else than
do women.
This kid isn't as strong as his mom and can't change her behavior yet.
I agree it was disrespectful to show her picture or to make her
identifiable in any manner.

Since my wife has a gathering collection of clothes she will never
wear filling more and more boxes in the basement, I showed her this
site and mentioned those clothes she's collecting.
She got pissed off at me, of course, and just couldn't help bringing
up all the spare computer and car parts I have laying about.  
Blah, blah, blah.
