[QUOTE="Sam3, post: 725494, member: 19290"] Good for you! It’s the simplest thing and because it’s old-fashioned, too, I think we evolved parents can’t accept its truth, without substantial over-thinking. You live life on the terms of the people who are paying for you, or you “are liberated to live life on your own terms.” as someone recently put it so aptly on the board. You’re right that it might not have sunk in. But it won’t sink until you actually stick to your guns, unfortunately. They’ve played the manipulation game far longer than we have been willing to go old-fashioned. But they learn quickly. [/QUOTE]
