<p>I wish the two of you would say what you want and make up your minds. The longer you wait the more it is going to cost me. And it would help if I wasn’t the middle man.</p>
<p>You’ve got to be kidding. You’re complaining to me about the “racket” of my neighbour’s daughter’s piano practice? Complaining to me that I’m not insisting she stops disturbing you and the community?
Why are you calling ME? You’re nuts.
Besides, I love listening to her Chopin and Schubert. She’s superb.</p>
<p>I am so sick of my husband - no new reason, just all of the same old ones. I’d say something to him about it but then he acts like a two year old and somehow it’s all my fault. So I will go home from work and act like everything is ok in some twisted effort to keep the peace. And all the while, I am absolutely certain that it isn’t worth it.</p>
<p>To D’s middle school teachers: I’m not sure why this is the case, but after having had 3 kids in the public school system in town, I can confidently proclaim that you all are the most unprofessional, insecure, petty teachers I have ever encountered. First of all, learn to admit you made a mistake, or, <em>GASP</em>, were plain wrong. It is unbecoming when you try to insinuate that I have “issues” merely because I object to the fact that you are offering extra credit worth more than all the total possible points in the marking period. And suddenly you want to have a meeting to talk about D’s progress? Why? She does all her work well, submits it to you on time, and has high A’s in every single class. But I suppose you are trying to imply she has issues too. I guess you only feel warm fuzzies for the lazy students. No doubt they don’t intimidate you or threaten your fragile ego.</p>
<p>Why do you swallow every explanation your daughter gives you as gospel? I am sorry, she can be a nice girl, but she can also be a manipulative dictator, too, and she is smart enough to only tell you the parts that make her look like a cherub and everyone else look like a bully. Get a clue…all kids do that! (And yours more than most!!) She can’t be all right, and the other person all wrong. You are an adult…buy a clue!</p>
<p>Just leave your wife at home and bring the kids to me to babysit. Not one person attending wants her to come with you. They want to see you, but would rather you leave her at home. Get a clue… everyone tries their hardest to avoid her at all costs. The world does not revolve around her!</p>
<p>You need to learn how to take the help that’s offered when it’s offered. Otherwise, the whole thing is about to be dumped back in your lap. It’s insulting that you don’t allow us to make any decisions; you really don’t have to control everything.</p>
<p>Today is my son’s birthday, he would have been 20, no one ever remembers or maybe they are afraid to say something? I remember.</p>

<p>You are one of the most cold-hearted people I have ever met. I am praying for the strength to remain a silent, to forgive you. I think it is best if I just pretend I don’t have a brother and when you do something for mom and dad, I will be grateful that this acquaintance was nice enough to help out.</p>
<p>Just checking this post, and saw anothercrazymom’s post.</p>
<p>My heart goes out to you, acm. I am so, so sorry for your loss.</p>
