[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 138137, member: 3626"] Sorry, but grow. a. spine. The next time your daughter shows up with uninvited guests, a polite but firm, "I'm sorry, we weren't expecting extra people tonight. I hate to do this, but I'm going to have to ask you to leave now." You're not being mean, you're not being rude but you're embarassing the heck out of her. Not your problem -- hers. I do feel so sorry for your daughter. She's only getting an iPOd shuffle for her b'day? Poor baby. You're going to be downloading her iTunes (at your expense, I assume)? Can you adopt me, please? I'd love an iPod of any type. A day at the spa sounds heavenly. Trust me, I'll find the time to spend the day with you for it. As to the bringing of friends, it sounds like she's trying to avoid being alone or having a one-on-one with you. Wonder why? Afraid of a lecture? Done something wrong she's afraid you'll figure out? Afraid you'll figure something out that she doesn't want you to know? Something smells and it's probably not pretty. I love the way your husband talked to your son. The man deserves a major hug for being so honest and up front to him. Sometimes being flat is a good way to be. HUGS [/QUOTE]
