[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 368095, member: 84"] Well I tried to stay out of it................But because easy child doesn't even follow the advice she give her sibs about coming onto this site and reading posts I've made to vent..........she managed to pull me right into it. I know some of it is pregnancy hormones skewing things and making her feel more strongly about things than she normally would. But I didn't appreciate waking up to an fb message that basically answered my post here. I've told them a million times this is my venting place, where I pour out the emotions so I can think things thru. So now I'm the bad guy. Everyone is the bad guy except the person who started the whole friggin mess.:angry: Man oh man does that p*ss me off. easy child hears/sees only what she wants to hear/see. ARGH! sister in law started this whole disaster with his mouth. Yet Nichole is being punished because now her sister doesn't want anything to do with her because it's gotten twisted into being her fault. Now I'm being punished for attempting to stay out of it and vent my feelings/frustrations out away from the situation.
