[QUOTE="nvts, post: 128074, member: 3814"] Mikey: To quote some truly brilliant, outragious philosophers: "RUN AWAY!!! RUN AWAY!!!" thank you Monty Python and the Holy Grail (the man-eating rabbit scene). Listen: you have to detach. Just as the others said "you're not being allowed to be a parent to McWeedy nor a husband to McWifey." Spoil Sarge and Dancer. Revel in the joy that is them. Teach them that being responsible, respectable, respectFUL, people gets attention, love and appreciating. If wife comes around - great! If not, you're still entitled to a life with happiness, love and appreciation from 2 kids that love and respect you. You're going to have to check out whether or not "The Prodigal Son" parable works. Refuse to pay for the phone, pull the starter out of his car and screw him. If wife wants to do it, he can go buy himself a rechargable cell phone at the drug store and if she can figure out how to fix the car great! If not, you're not fixing it NOR are you agreeing to pay for the repair. Good luck kiddo! Beth [/QUOTE]
