Guilty as charged.. I am a WAW.

it just gets better & better doesn't it. I guess at least I haven't wasted 2 days with all this BS I've had today.


H & S (18) got into it tonight.. I swear to god it was like an out of body experience listening to the two of the argue. S was calling H on every point I have called him on (except being abusive) in the past year. H talked to and treated S just as he treats me, like a dumba$$.

The kid was asking his Dad how to build his credit score. Wants to get credit card to use it responsibly to build his credit score, so when he gets out of college, he's good to go for buying a car/house, etc.

Now opinions aside about credit cards & 18 year olds, this kid has had a debit card & checking account since he has been 14. Never overdrafted once in almost 5 years and it's not because his dad & I saved his A$$ either, He is just that good with money.

H told S, there was no reason for him to do that at this point, he could wait until he was out of school or even until next year to get a credit card.

It was stupid to try and build a credit rating at his age.

What the hell was the point? Was he going to go out & buy anything that needed a credit history in the next year??

Stupid this, assinine that, idiotic (such creative words don't you agree?)


logic, logic, logic.. and it's only his logic that matters. As S. told him, I spent 3 hours looking up information on this, came to you for advice and all you can tell me is how stupid this idea is and how dumb it was & I am for thinking it's a good idea in the first place. He let him have it pretty good.... pretty much summed up most of the argument points I have had with him about his 'communication' with me.

While in some ways it was satisfying to watch & listen too, my heart hurt watching them both hurt each other as they did. I did not interfere, or try to 'take care' of it (god that was hard).

I let it run it's course. H left, S. stormed out of the room, and D went to bed crying, because someone talked nasty to her Dad (she's very much daddy's littel girl). H called S back about 3o minutes later, I'm guessing to apologize.. that's pretty much his MO.

Now I need those 2 beers.
