[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 637140, member: 1514"] Cedar....I read about a fourth of this and I just had to reply to you. We go way back dont we? I remember when you first came here and I think it was right around the time Jamie was heading off to boot camp. I know it was your son who brought you here because the docs had convinced you that all that was wrong with your dtr was PCOS or something like that. One thing I remember so clearly that you said was you put a picture out of the newspaper on your fridge of the young men and women serving in the military to help you realize that if they could do it, so could your son. How F'n dare your son!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would almost understand him trying to convince you to give him your house if he was 18 or 19 because kids that age are just dumb sometimes. I remember thinking that I wished my parents would have just given me our family home when they divorced instead of selling it. Not so much because I thought they owed it to me but it was MY house! However for your son to be mean is just too much. You are much too nice a lady for that. Were you a perfect parent? Probably not but I dont think anyone is. I know you did your best. If your son only got his GED well that is on him. I was an idiot and dropped out of HS too...long story. I got my GED and then in my mid-twenties I went back to college (with 3 very young kids!). Cory is a 9th grade drop out. I doubt he ever gets his GED unless he spends some time in prison. Oh well...I tried until I realized I was trying harder than he was. Personally Im a bit ticked at these adult kids right now. Why they think we owe them a darned thing is beyond me. [/QUOTE]
