[QUOTE="witzend, post: 380689, member: 99"] Oh, Fran that welcome was worn out long ago! She was mad as a hornet by the time he left 18 months later. She knew he had taken advantage of and manipulated her but somehow it was still all our fault for raising such a damaged person. Gawd if people only knew the years and years of therapy and treatment that we supplied and participated in. I think that the "my parents abused me" argument doesn't sell too well with friends at this point. For some reason grown women were more than happy to rescue him from his terrible parents, but people his own age expect him to get over it, I'm sure. They sure don't expect him to act as though he's 12 years old and can't take a shower or wash his clothes or clean the toilet. These are people who are getting married and have careers or are at least on their way to careers and it's clear to them that M is not stupid. He has an IQ of 135, so that doesn't sell. He just comes across as lazy and selfish. [/QUOTE]
