Thought I Was Piecing, Now I'm Detaching 4

[Harrier]

I'm going to chime in her and I'm sure it won't be popular. But I want to know is PON a "parent" 100% of the time? What I mean is does he do the hard stuff, the discipline, the telling kids hard things....not just being there for play time, gifts and going to the other vaca house.

Because if he only does the "fun" stuff...then he's not a parent. He's a fun uncle and I could see why that would be hard to deal with as a parent who has to be the bad guy all the time. It's exhausting.

so I hope PON is being a parent and not a fun uncle because if he's not than his wife's complaints are valid (though not necessarily in the proper format)

This whole being "disrespected" stuff drive me nuts. What this boils down to is that PON isn't detached and hasn't been detached. I hate to say it.

Until then it won't matter what she does or doesn't.
