[QUOTE="Sue C, post: 123410, member: 87"] Chris -- Melissa "lost" her SS card but then I found it in her bedroom when I was looking for something. She has "lost" her driver's license but then I've found it laying around the house. So, she did not actually lose these things, but she's careless with them. When I found the SS card, I put it in a lock box with husband's and mine. When she was in college, she lost her student ID several times and had to pay for new ones. And she forgot her purse at the movie theater, and it was not there when she returned. She also lost her cell phone charger and can't remember where she took it. Huh??? As far as treating us like garbage and expecting anything positive out of it, it's like meowbunny said: "...my theory is it is guilt. They know they are at fault and think that if they take the offensive, they won't have to take responsibility." That statement reminded me of when Melissa got her first speeding ticket. She walked into the house all angry, slammed the ticket on the kitchen counter, told us it was our fault she got the ticket, and stormed off into her bedroom. sue [/QUOTE]
