DYK actually the people I've talked to have been really nice?


DYK it's just the time and hassle that annoy me?


DYK instead of sending her final check made out to me (like they told me they would), they first sent me a statement saying it had been electronically deposited into my mom's bank (which I don't have access to until we close the account)...but then this week they sent a check made out to *her*, and said they stopped the electronic deposit...so now I have this check sitting here, which I may or may not be able to deposit in the bank account that is at a bank 8 hours away from me...then once it gets deposited we'll probably have to wait a week for it to clear before we can close the account and actually *get* the money?!


DYK that's all on top of the social security issue, which is even more of a hassle??


DYK this is all such a pain, because she had no life insurance and no assets, so we're having to pay for everything ourselves...


DYK PLEASE people, make sure you have life insurance and wills!!!

DYK some "friends" who have terrible children tell me I wouldn't understand their stress b/c my son is "perfect"


DYK I want to scream at them


DYK I want to tell them 1) my son is not perfect, just knows how to behave in public because he is afraid of me. (kidding about the afraid part) and 2) he is well behaved because of all the parenting I have done to get him to that point.


DYK sometimes I wish I had footage of all the fits he threw as a 2 and 3 year old

DYK I'm wondering if Parker is a girl.


DYK my son's best friend is a "Parker girl"


DYK that is what we call her because there was also a "Parker boy" in their preschool class

DYK I totally agree that how you parent has a *huge* affect on how your kids behave?


DYK my neighbors kids are generally good kids, but because she and her DH aren't at all consistent with them (he rarely backs her up when she disciplines them, and they never seem to stick to consequences), the kids are pretty much in charge?


DYK my kids know that what we say goes?

DYK Cathy, you are going straight to heaven?


DYK even if she's not as easy going as your parents, I'm sure she'll appreciate your hospitality!
