[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 592145, member: 84"] MWM I know he is your son. I know you love him. I'm sure there are many good qualities that he has. But he couldn't possibly get any more self absorbed if he tried. The world is to revolved around him, you, ex, his ex, J......and probably everyone else around him is expected to cave to his slightest whim in this distorted warped view of reality. Usually those that are this self absorbed are manipulative, because they have the sense to know that to be direct would show them for who and what they are. He doesn't even have that much sense, or doesn't for some reason believe it is needed. I"d have laughed at him. I meant really belly laughed at his ridiculous demands. Then told him whatever relationship ex and J develop is between ex and J, it will be what it will be.......and that is OK. Then I'd have hung up on him. (because I'm sure he'd go off) I have this sarcastic laugh I used to use when my kids had some ridiculous notion of what I was expected to do simply because I am their parent. Annoys the heck out of them but they get the point rather quickly. Hold it. I had to use that laugh the other day with easy child.......... She had asked me to pup sit her new pound rescue while their family fluttered off to Myrtle Beach for however long. Uh, really? You had these plans prior to adopting the pup. (yes, she tends to "assume" too much a bit too often for my tastes) Oh, but Ammo and Maggie get along wonderfully! Yes, they do. That does NOT mean I want another pup to care for while you're off having a good time. I told her that prior to her picking up the pup. I told her again after picking up the pup. I've since adopted Rufus.......so now that would mean 3 young dogs, two still pups..........not no, but HELL no! So she got "the laugh" and told to start looking into reservations at kennels or find a camp ground. Since she has not cancelled her trip.......it seems she still thinks she can convince me. I'll be doing that laugh again soon, I'm sure. omg geez Vent away. I would have a tough time dealing with it for certain. I have issues with Katie and she is not quite as bad. At least she attempts to pretend to not be quite so self centered. *sigh* [/QUOTE]
