[QUOTE="Overwhelmed1, post: 756626, member: 24921"] It is always so good to hear from all of you. Do much wisdom and guidance from you all. I never want only of you to feel you need to apologise for anything you say to me. Like I said before, I need to hear it and I don't want it sugar coated. My son does not work but his girlfriend does. Has a good job too. They both have the newest of all the tech crap out there. Newest I-phone, play station and all the cool stuff to go with it, not to mention clothes, shoes, trips they take on the weekends etc. My daughter on the other hand has absolutely nothing except the SUV I bought her and if course clothes, shoes and such. No money if her own though. I have been working long hours the past two weeks due to staff working at home so I asked this question to my son early. His girlfriend stayed home from work today, by the way. Me "do you guys want some chicken for lunch/dinner today?" ( I have been craving Popeyes or Bojangles chicken :) He says sure. Me - I don't know what time I will get off today so I will buy if you will pick it up. Son's response So you don't want to know if I want chicken, you want to know if I will go get you chicken. Me - no I asked if you wanted some chicken, if you would have said no I would have said OK and dropped it. What is that? I don't understand. At a lost for words and hurt. [/QUOTE]
