[QUOTE="Farmwife, post: 370965, member: 8617"] Marg- Yeah the indebtedness does breed some contempt. I'm just transplanted in a culture that was set into motion long before I got here. Though husband is wonderful we are in a very traditional patriarch run community. It is archaic by modern standards but just how it is in farm communities. Women have opinions but not often a vote...persuasion and charm is the only way to assert ourselves. Not how I was raised but it has it's benefits too. I hated city life desperately. husband and I built most of our home by hand, you would never know it though. husband lived here all his life and is the third generation on this farm. There were several other generations of farmers before who had to relocate as the city grew around their land. Anyway...husband never would or could live elsewhere. The land was "gifted" to him before I entered his life and his dream home was deep into the preparation stages when we met. (he is old fashioned and wanted a house before he looked for a wife) So, I married an entire family of crazy people for better or for worse. Grandpa pudding brain is in charge. :funny: As for the boy, he should pay the piper and he will. The trouble with kids here is that the more you try to intervene the more they get nasty in secret. If I tried to send a polite message to the kids Dad it would just be worse for difficult child. difficult child's only safety is that several people up and down our road were mad from the damages and it was just "luck" we were the ones that caught them. Not sure if a kid who lost his independence from being grounded and is the type to jeopordize his life jumping deep road ditches (one would have almost flipped his vehicle it is so bad) can see reason or act in a mature fashion. :whiteflag: There is one ditch that has a 10 foot drop off and could literally take his life...of course he is young and invincible and hopped up on hormones so chances are difficult child will still bear the brunt of his anger. Terry- He calls his beer his medicine:raspberry-tounge:. Maybe I could slip something into his beer...little sugar to get the real medicine down.lol [/QUOTE]
