Why is this unbelievable? We’ve offered our kids’ friends a place to stay. One lived with us for 6 months. My mom let my brother’s friend live with them for awhile after I had moved out. And they said “tonight”.I would not send a young lady away after a trauma like that. They all need some sleep before they tackle the problem of what to do next.
It comes with the territory, Bwad. I carried a first aid kit in my purse for years when I was raising kids. There were 4 of them, and SOMEONE was always bleeding. And don’t even get me started on emergency room visits. One of my daughters broke both arms in a scooter accident when she was 13. She thought it would be cool to close her eyes while riding downhill on a curved street.
I was expected to pay a token amount while I was in school in the late 70’s/early 80’s, more when I was working full-time. I also expected my adult kids to pay if they were living at home and not working in their education.
I was going to comment that my dogs never act like that when they are home alone, but they are never home alone. They have the cats to keep them company.
Come on, ladies. Eclectic, well rounded, all American girl, girl next door. Start brainstorming!
