Tfish - ding, ding, ding. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! It is all about them and their own issues.

Mleigh, one of my crazy chronic issues is my h thinks the kids aren't "tough" when they stay home sick!!! No joke! Unless they have a fever of 107 degrees he basically thinks the should go. LOL!! Umm, the teachers don't double as nurses and kids should learn to take of their sick bodies. I know exactly where and from whom he learned this mentality. Thanks MIL!!!

This is where we come up against those family of origin issues. Just dust it off. He lacks perspective.

Loving/meeting a kids various needs is not spoiling, it's good parenting. Not meeting these needs is neglect.
