[QUOTE="Shari, post: 139706, member: 1848"] You know what's funny about this lady? A) when we met, she had just got married. Her older daughter is 9 or 10, the younger is 6. She was a major difficult child. Drugs, parties, unprotected sex (ie her older daughter who's father probably doesn't even know she exists). She'd just left "the life" when she married her hubby and got pregnant with daughter #2 right away. The older one was parked in front of the tv til the religion took the tv 3 years ago. I don't how many times we had emails of pictures of her older daughter in red boots because she lived for Dora the Explorer. She even let daughter wear red boots to church. Which brings me to funny point B). Daughter #1 has some sensory issues. She doesn't choose to dress like mama wants, and mama no longer tolerates red boots for church. It must be lacy dresses and tights. She was recently complaining about daughter #1's inability to choose appropriate clothing, and most other moms said "let it go", but she would have none of it. I won't engage this woman. I'll probably not even open emails unless required to participate in another aspect of conversation with the rest of the group. I nearly alienate the group as it is just because she is ever present. Anyway, thanks for listening to me gripe. [/QUOTE]
