[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 135166, member: 3647"] Smallworld, you are right, but I see Heather's point. Right then and there, she has a meltdown ready to boil over, and what can she do? "try this." "I can't." "how about this?" "no, blah blah." "well then (gritting teeth) why not THIS?" "but MOOOM, blah di blah." Tink is well on her way to the same. She has much less responsibility, considering her age, but you'd think I was expecting her to balance the checkbook while cooking a 7 course meal. I, too, wonder what is a good solution to try and (A) get them out of "I can't", (B) try not to have my own meltdown, and (C) not give in and just do it for them. [/QUOTE]
