[QUOTE="Steely, post: 324872, member: 3301"] Just want you to know I totally understand the disbelief we all feel when our kids spout things like " I am gonna move in with Dad". Really? Which Dad? Oh, you mean your sperm donor? The one who never ever lived up to one iota of the job description "Dad"? Let alone a decent human being? The one who has given us both mental collateral damage for life? Greeaaattt choice buddy! You go live with the man who has never kept a job, owes 100K in child support, is an alcoholic, philanderer, abuser, and total loser. The one who left you crying at the window waiting for him over 100 times because he promised he would be there to visit. The one who went years without caring enough to send a card to you. Super choice. Seriously, it must be in their DNA or something. It is similar to being 17 and hormonally "in love". They just have no clue. Somehow they just don't connect the freaking life dots. I can only surmise they will get a clue only when reality bites them. However, we cannot take it personally, as much as it stings it is not us - it is wiring. [/QUOTE]
