I was pleased to see that you were out with friends.
Goin' out with friends from work tonight too and makin' plans for the rest of the month (w/ & w/o DD's). Got some info to go camping w/DD's this spring.
what is your intent with the email?
Pretty much what was stated in the email. To let W know that homework was not done on ThuPM b/c the book was not w/D14.
Trying to create situations where boundaries can be enforced it not very authentic. . .but trying to create situations to assert yourself will not be fruitful
I agree. Do you think that I created a situation? If so what was it?
Is there anything in it or about it that comes off as placating or supplicating?
I don't think so and it was not my intent. If the message had a tone of soothing humility about it, it was not my intention. I merely was relaying an event and an observation as information.
She is old enough to take responsibility for her own homework/reading.
I agree. In the case where W is taking D14 out of her home for the evening, I think its fair to hope that W asks "Do you have all you need to do your homework?".
have anyone seen ThatGuy around? Not recently, but people seem to be jumping from one board to another as their situations change.
