[QUOTE="Star*, post: 114748, member: 4964"] I'm such a witch - I'd tell wife - "Okay you get her a card, put the money in it and I'll give it to her later." Then I'd go get fired up at Sonic with their caramel coffee drinks- three would do it - I'm pretty sure it's rocket fuel disguised as an attractive "in" beverage. And then I'd 'fly' my caffeine infested self home and rain all over her parade tossing Skittles all over the house so she could taste a real rainbow - Hey brother, if she's going to live in fantasy land you may as well bring snacks. I really have no idea what is going through your wife's brain. And for sticking it out - BIG APPLAUSE, nae - THUNDEROUS OVATION. I mean it! Do you have any idea what your staying says for your character? And the kid is 2..tw.....twenty WHAT? And she's still living at home? (makes very drawn out face the kind where lips are stretched over extended top teeth, like a sand dried mummy) Yeah that's it. WOW! Do you think there is an itsy bitsy chance your wife is maybe doing this so that YOU life will be easier? (I saw that look) Do you think maybe she's taken total leave of her senses? (I saw her look too) Do you think there is ANY chance that your daughter will say "Thanks but no thanks I need to do this on my own, could you get me a bond instead?" (oh you though that was funny huh?) Stranger things have happened. I really don't know what to say. DIYD/DIYD huh? Is there a chance you can talk to your daughter and tell her that Mom wants to do this for her - but you think it would be better if she did it herself on her own? And if she does THEN she can have the money from her Mom to - (whatever?) I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas here -- -but I know a Mom when she wants to give a child money and especially since it was followed with that little personal attack to you. She's going to make the offer. And while it's a nice gesture - to share money with children - I think it's the wrong cause - Money good /Reasoning bad. Money for something OTHER than bailing out kid GOOD. Sounds like something else is bugging your wife. This would be a nice time for an evening out. Some flowers home to her - a nice "I appreciate you" note. I haven't had to be where you are - but I feel for ya. Best of Luck Star [/QUOTE]
