From years of experience, kids are only "bastards" when they are raised wrong or if they have "isms" etc. And even then alot of the time the behaviour can be redirected. I think raising kids should mainly be done by parents who would ideally be strongly supported by family, friends and community networks.

apparently not, because 34 years of marriage later.... the "I've had enough" comments started..i don't know when, probably a year or so ago, the petty arguing and hurting of each other's feelings never seems to stop, especially when other people are around, and when one of the members of the relationship actually dreads the other coming back to the house from, say, nextdoor? I'm like "um....that's a bad sign, isn't it?"

each person is completely fine on their own, as soon as they get in a room together, it's like an automatic explosion.

..where'd the bastards comment stem from, boris? i think i lost part of a convo again ><;;

o.O Perhaps a divorce is in order for them, then..? Or maybe they really need therapy, or an extended vacation away from each other?

you know, I would totally do this-

Seriously the energy in that theater was insane. There were a number of people crying at the end even. It was crazy and I don't think I'll ever forget it.

RF: i'd vote therapy, except one of the parties involved doesn't think they have a problem, and they definitely do (the whole admission thing just doesn't happen). divorce might seem extreme to some, but considering, i really think they both might be happier. maybe a little lonely, but happier without the constant arguing...at least one of them would be ><;;

zeek: why were ppl crying?

Divorce can get very ugly. I vote the counseling route first. There was love there at some point. Maybe a professional can find out what happened to it and find a way to revive it.

My cousin is going through the process of getting a divorce and the stories I'm getting relayed through my mom just make me cringe. Of course it's all one sided in favor of my cousin, but it sounds like they're really mad at each other. The things that drive me nuts are the parts where they're trying to hurt each other and end up hurting their kids in the process. Like allegedly keeping things the kid wants at one house or the other just so the kid won't be happy when he's with the other parent.

I'm sure not all divorces get so ugly but the potential alone is frightening to me.

And the crying was for Wash I think. I didn't talk to the people who were crying I just made fun of them later.

counselling is hard when person A thinks everything is person B's fault, and person B thinks everything is person A's fault because person B has had enough of person A's bullshit, rightfully so, and person A insists that person A has no problems at all--because everything is the other person's fault. they can't talk things out anymore, at all. i think only one of them would ever consent to trying that, honestly, so it kind of gets stuck.

*sigh* counselling might work, but i'm afraid they'd just revert after a while. their attitudes can turn on a dime. they're not bad people, and they're not always miserable, but they seem miserable more often than not.

Ouch.. this really does seem like a bad situation. I don't have any other ideas, other than the counseling/divorce..

lol. the funny thing is they'd flip if they knew i was writing this about them, then follow with "YOU'RE MAKING IT SEEM LIKE WE FIGHT ALL THE TIME!!" to which i'd haaave to respond, "well....you kind of do (at least when i'm around)." but yeah, seriously, i wish i had a way to record/tape their explosice instances so i could show them "this is what people see. maybe its not true, but it sure as hell seems it."

*lights up bat signal to fix problem*

[/ponder] yuck, that was some bad juju to unload ><;;

ponder: what does it mean when people from your mother's work ask you if 'theres any new developments i should know about?' i know it's kind of a rhetorical question, but..I'M TWENTY!! AND STILL IN COLLEGE!! WTF??
