Yes, it is a bad for all gender children to see what entitlement looks like. In my world the sad part is my wife has a billion ideas for our boys to find employment, and nags them to no end to work work work…..Makes me want to puke becasue of the “do as I say and not what I do” insanity.
If I dare go there and bring this up (even in an email, or a whisper) I am verbally abusive. It’s a complete no win with this emotional cripple. If i engage, it’s a bad thing. If I don’t she one ups and totally shuts down (with one eye over her shoulder watching my reactions). I think they call that emotional blackmail…..Maybe? Maybe not?
Again, she comes off like the nicest open and hard working person on the planet. Example: I stopped by the animal shelter she “works” at and a few of her co- “workers” needed to bring to my attention how hard she works…………….How fantastic is with cleaning and organizing. Again, I took it in stride and at the same time boiled over that this nonsense purely enriches her life and NOBODY elses. In other words, we should all be happy becasue she is.

I better not get going this morning. The 4th weekend was a total bust for me and I’m trying not to let it spill over into the day.
