[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 59319, member: 1991"] I get it. You are white, so you couldn't POSSIBLY understand... yep, I've met THAT one before. I do agree, tell him that the best revenge is success, despite the prejudice - he wins, every way round. But to not even try - it means they have won, they believe themselves vindicated in their racist opinions (whoever 'they' are - he probably hasn't defined that himself). And don't compare your situation to ours - we all cope with what we have and whether we could each manage someone else's load more easily or less easily - we will never know. To go down that path is to end up feeling guilty for thinking life isn't perfect, and you can do without guilt adding to your load as well. You have every right to dump on us whenever you feel like it. Crikey, if we don't understand, who will? You have two other sons who aren't like this, so clearly it's not bad parenting on your part. Good luck with your decisions, whatever they end up being. Marg [/QUOTE]
