My favorite thing he told me was that he wanted to go and be Indiana Jones!! (Umm, he did not seem to realize that is a fictional character!) So, I asked him "you want to be an actor?!?" Ohhh, did he get soooo mad!)
God that was funny. BAD you BAD DBing, but holy crap that is funny. Awesomely...wrong and hilarious.
Brubeck can I assume that this is her rewriting the past? Where everything bad in her life and up until now is your fault?
For the record, just because they want to talk...and by talk I mean vomit forth ugliness, Validation doesn't mean you have to stand there and take it.

I never bothered paying attention to the kids until "this year".
Yeah they seem to to hate that. Mine was sort of right about it, I was a dad in presence...that is one of those areas that I am glad for being an LBSer for, because I realized how much better I SHOULD be in the regard.
Not everything they say is wrong btw. Perception forms their reality. There might be some truth...some...not all and that is for you to determine with what they are yelling at you for.
I am reminded of my two boys, my oldest hit my youngest, who of course got upset. My oldest said I didn't even hit him that hard. I asked him if he would like me to hit him but not that hard by my view point. He of course declined and I said your truth is different than your brothers. You don't think its a big deal, and because of that you don't think he should think it is. But he does and that's not for you to tell him how to feel.
