A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall You learn something new everyday

no, I know them that would be the relatives.

we don't smoke, drink or cuss (I don't want ashley having bad habits) so my cuss word is buger.

hubby and I don't go see his grand kids often for fear of the cops doing a drug raid while we're there and taking everyone in. Thye might live like that but we don't and I don't want ashley around it.

Last time we went people were in and out like a bus station Ashley and I sit in the car, he went in and he said the guy in front of him just pushed the door open and went in so he did too, his daughter jumped up and said "don't you ever f'ing knock" so he came back out and we left. She cusses him like a dog when she sees him.

Sheri, I am sorry for your situation,=. what you said about the cigs is just what I was thinking.--perhaps giving the brother a box or 2 of cigs and whatever cash you think is reasonable once a week (going on a weekend) would be the way to go----this way you would be helping him but not "helping what ever else it is he is doing"

again I am sorry for you & I hope things get better soon.

That sounds god awful.

Your not your brothers keeper after 21...
Tell him to grow up or throw up/

Belinda, fortunately Johnny's sisters are nice people now. They cuss and smoke but no drugs other than one is an alcoholic and so is her husband, but they're nice. I like them. His brothers have never grown up but I actually like them too. The whole bunch has always been nice to me. I just had to get used to the cussing and not take it personally and learn not to invite them over. I am used to having family dinners and all but not with this bunch. We can invite 3 of the sisters together and the alcoholic one with some of the sisters but when they all get together it's too much for everyone. When their dad was in the hospital if they all showed up at the same time it was down right embarrassing. Everyone wants to be boss and thinks they are an expert on everything.
