snafu Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Okay I got this friend whose daughter had a dispute with her boyfriend and has moved back in with him and his wife. The daughter isn’t trying to help herself and at the same time the old lady, I mean his wife wants to treat her like she’s a teenager. You know “where are you going”, “get a job”, “get a life” shit like that. Because well she sleeps all day and goes out sometimes without saying where and when she’ll be back (sometimes not until the morning:eek: ) and does very little around the house. Not to mention she has a 3 year old baby she needs to pawn off to the old lady or the boyfriends mom when she wants to go out. Not that having such a sweetheart of a grandchild around isn't good. Now my buddy is stuck in the middle. If he doses nothing he risks the wrath of my old lady, I mean his wife. And if he jumps up and down on the daughter he will become the villain which he was before by enforcing the old ladies rules while she was a teenager. What say you? Villain or cool dad?

Phantom Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 NOT a cool dad. Fathers are not supposed to be "cool" or your buddy. They are supposed to be your father. This girl sounds like she needs a quick dose of reality and a swift kick in the butt. Quote Blah.
rizzo Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 He's not doing her any favors by not enforcing the rules. My FIL played that game with his youngest daughter for a few years. Quote

Reality check with a dose of foot in the ass.
