Just not really sure what to think of this.

Maybe I have just become really cynical but it makes me wonder.
Huh. I had no idea what all I had to look forward to. ;)
I feel troll but we'll watch for now and see.

I liked it! I do think if she is not a troll she is an enabler. I have family members who are alcoholics, now, I don't know if the drug rehab people are different, but I do know that the AA groups my family members were part of pushed personal responsibility. They would have totally called someone on living with parents and not working or going to school or something. I remember they said boredom was dangerous. That would tempt them back into that lifestyle. My dad was encouraged by his mentor to join an adult softball league, to do things with us kids, to volunteer and certainly to get a job. They also talked about restitution and how you treat the family members you have hurt. Maybe the military will help the son, on the other hand he may get booted out part way through boot camp. Little sis joined the navy and not everyone made it through boot camp. If it gets hard, why should her perservere, when he knows he has a rent free place to live with free food waiting. Anyway, I am going to try hard not to comment anymore. Why can't I ever stop at just one line?
Raise your hand if you're SHOCKED that the one person that completely supported the OP's theory that the kids are nightmares because of the birth parents lifestyle is Manni?
(For the record, my hands are down)

ROFL! :clap:
ROFL...Hadn't thought of that aspect but you are right TGM!
Kathy - I think you should just tell her how bad the 20's were and if she were smart she should think about therapy for herself and possible prozac.;)

I would have said possibly an enabler until her latest post. It is just all so perfectly laid out.
I want someone to come right out and ask her why she is here.
I agree Deb...it's just "too perfect" in a way. I mean you name it, it's got it - just like a LIfetime movie script.
each of her posts are so dam* long i can't even bring myself to read them all. who writes like that in real life?

And from her latest post
I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to post today - believe it or not I got knocked down by lightning this morning! No lie! I was walking between buildings at my company, when suddenly I started feeling tingly and breathless, and my instinct screamed GET INSIDE! I quickly opened a side door and there was a blinding flash of light and the loudest BOOM I've ever heard...and next thing I knew I was on the floor just inside the door! Turns out lightning struck a lamppost RIGHT next to me, and the concussion blew me right through the doorway.
Really? Seriously? No lie???????
All I can say is that reading all the posts didn't do a thing for the raging headache I have battled all day. Something is amiss here, but my head doesn't let me think too clearly right now.

Haha, that's so classic!
I'm in Cali, and I saw one spasm of lightening. (Of course, I heard the shriek of a nutjob at the end of it, so I guess her story holds water! ;))
Come to think of it, I thought I heard a faint shriek. Wonder if it was her (or just my boys). lol
