[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 532419, member: 1233"] Demand cash for the rhubarb patch. if she goes into the 'you don't love me', agree. Well, if htat is what you think, it must be true.' and then leave. don't go back untl she ASKS you to - asks nicely at that. Or sit her down and tell her, clearly, that she is NOT allowed to come over iwth friends, and any other rules that are hard and fast. When you find her violating them, tell her up front, not nicely (not rude but open and clear with NO doubt) or delicately and tell her that if she cannot follow your boundaries on your property then you will have to seek a legal solution via the police - trespassing and theft charges for STEALING food out your families' mouths. Tell her that she STOLE that rhubarb out of your children's mouths and she must now pay you the $50 that the rhubarb in your garden was worth. Do NOT debate how much was there or how much she and her friends took. Your harvest is gone, the harvest was worth $50 or some high amt, and she is to give you the $ NOW and if she doesn't you are calling the police to report her and her friends for theft. Then do t if she refuses to pay or she does it again. I am NOT joking. I was serious when i told my bro that I was calling 911 the last time he just walked into my home. His daughter was there and was scared, as was he because he has already had problems with the law in the past. She can only do this stuff if you ALLOW it. It is not easy, but you MUST draw boundaries. Your kids are the ones who will pay the most if you don't. been there done that and hated how my weakness for my mom and bro hurt my children. [/QUOTE]
