[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 643423, member: 1550"] My difficult child is judgmental too. Very. You smoke pot. You're trash. You don't have a job. You are useless. You live in a bad part of town. You are lazy. The thing that puzzles me is that we never had a lot, although we probably spoiled the kids too much. He is the only one with such a nose in the air. And it bothers me a lot because I've always been like the girl who hugs everyone and isn't afraid and my other kids do not judge people harshly at all. It is just him.I've always been unashamed of shopping at thrift stores and garage sales and will tell the truth about where I acquired something if asked. If it's at Macy's, I'll say so (I've never been to Macy's:)) If it's at a garage sale, I'll say so. No need to lie or not be myself. All my kids are humble and don't even care about name brand clothing and never did, except for 37. And ex was so cheap he wore the same suit we got married in to every single Christmas Eve at his family's get together until we got a divorce. Even I was embarassed about THAT...lol. RE, I am trying to do what you are. I try not to judge or figure him out, even though his values and personality are sooooo different from me and I don't understand him. He is what he is. [/QUOTE]
