[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 540461, member: 59"] Good for you Sig. I did much the same and easy child never minded. Of course I caught difficult child in many lies that way also. When we hosted get togethers here I made it known to the parenst that we would be home the entire time and they would not be allowed to leave. I have had parents call me under the guise of asking a question, just to make sure the get together was actually happening. I applauded those parents. I have also had parents who were non-existant and those were the kids that I had to keep my eye on. I was not above driving past the house where a get together was going on to make sure everything looked ok. I have a friend who insisted on meeting the parents before she would allow any one of her three daughters to go over to their house. If she didn't know the family from school or church or the community she would call me and ask if I knew them and if it was OK to let her daughters go there. All of her kids were easy child's, all have advanced college degrees, two of them as biomedical engineers. But she needed to know her daughters were safe. There are a lot of crazy things that go on in this world. One needs only look at Jerry Sandusky to see that. Kathy it works both ways and here's another perspective. easy child was sometimes embarrassed to have friends over because she was afraid they would think she was showing off since we did have a finished basement and fairly new house. Many of her friends lived in the older part of the city and some did not have air conditioning. easy child never flaunted anything and was just as happy to go to their houses as she was to have them at hers. But on more than one occassion she told me she felt embarrassed that she had such a nice house and hoped they didn't hold that agaisnt her. Some did. Like your easy child though she was more embarrassed by difficult child than she was of anything else. Nancy [/QUOTE]
