[QUOTE="slsh, post: 346150, member: 8"] Shari - I wouldn't. It seems like your interventions are extremely unappreciated by mom and only serve to force easy child/difficult child to dig herself deeper holes. Honestly, while I think I have an idea of how much the lying is burning your toast, I would let it go. If husband wants to ask, great. You have enough on your plate and it just seems to me, based on prior history with- mom, that somehow you're going to end up being the bad guy. It seems like mom hasn't heard you too well up to this point, and how long do you want to keep banging your head against a brick wall? Disclaimer: I'm getting very old and tired and not willing to put up with much garbage, certainly am not inviting it into my life - sometimes I'm thinking a don't-ask/don't-tell policy may not be all that bad when dealing with- difficult children. Just my opinion, though. ;) [/QUOTE]
