Haven't deleted anything but I get what you're saying. I was reading some articles about this stuff last night. They didn't contain solutions though. Just stating the problems.

About what stuff? Sibling rivalry or financial issues?

Sheesh, didn't your homeschooler teach you to avoid weak antecedents?

Did you create the State math problem by any chance?

Gahh!

If you want teh internets to fix your problems, you have to state them clearly.

We realize this and have decided it shouldn't be talked about. That's why I was wondering about how to deal with parents too. I don't want my sister telling my mom stuff about us that's not true and mom getting a bad impression of us. (My sister having stuff to tell my mom is another reason to keep her out of our lives) I think my mom realizes the problem I'm having now and we're going to leave it at that. Thanks for the reminder though.

Aside:

So I was reading this thread but kept getting distracted by thoughts about one of the posts. Maybe it is the ghost of Bob G..

So is Abused Students brothers hitting his ex? Cause that's what it sounds like.

Now I'm jealous of you. The most recent time I did this (agreed with her when she was underhandedly insulting me), she just kept going and going and I continued to pleasantly agree - I could tell she was trying to provoke me. Finally, my mother got fed up and told her "enough".

Maybe she would have kept going, but she still had to spend 20 minutes talking about her upcomming wedding.
