[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 521226, member: 59"] You did great TL. He certainly tried to manpulate you but you stood firm and you verified that he did not need a better bike. If he was trying to con you hopefully he will think twice before he tries it again. A few days before I figured out my difficult child's con and cut her off we were talking about her 21st birthday in June and I said maybe we could get her a small flat screen tv for her apartment and she said she well she was thinking of asking for a better laptop. I couldn't believe it, how entitled she thought she was. First of all we got her laptop for her when she went to college in 2009 and she promptly got kicked out. She hardly used the laptop at all. She was living out of the house and in rehab and sober houses most of last year so it didn't get used at all. It's a better laptop than mine and she said it was a piece of junk. Huh???? I let he know she would not be getting a new laptop. And now she won't even be getting the tv. I am planning on sending her a card and and that's it. I'm sure she will see that as an outright rejection but we have no contact with her and I have spent far too much money on getting her set up in her apartment only to find out we were conned. And anyrthing I send her would give her that much more she can spend on alcohol and drugs. Nancy [/QUOTE]
