My grandma was just like Lucille Bluth. It was not funny though. Her Buster was my cousin who hasn't worked a full time job in his life and blew through 500k of her money while living with her. He's now a prime candidate for the most pathetic person you know thread. Leon Einstein fucked around with this message at 21:45 on Oct 25, 2018 |

Laffo if you dont beat your parents peak earnings before youre 30. Makes it real easy to command respect in your family when they have to kiss your ring before theyre allowed to grovel for a better cut.

The easiest way to avoid 'why didn't you have a stellar life handed to you on a silver platter like we did?' entitlement is to have working class parents(who themselves had working class parents, ie 'no real inheritance'). You graduated from college when neither of your parents did? You have a steady job, can pay all your bills, and can actually afford some retirement savings? Boom, they're already proud of you. The downside to this strategy is that they probably will never 'get' how career progression works, because they've never had a career you could actually progress in. My mom thinks you can magic more money out of your career simply by getting higher-level degrees, and she'll never quite grok that's not how it works, no matter how many times I explain to her why I'm not wasting time going to grad school.

Yes most elderly get Medicare and if they need a nursing home you put all the assets in a trust so they are technically poor and qualify for Medicaid. Don't pay for that stuff.

Dear Prudie posted:Q. Gardening That’s Too Organic: Gardening has always been a favorite pastime of my wife’s, and over the years she’s spoiled me with delicious home-grown fruits and vegetables. Last year she decided to go organic, which is harder than I would have thought. She’s the type of person who likes to figure things out on her own, and trial and error is her favorite learning method. Last year she tried using horse manure as fertilizer, and didn’t like the resulting weeds. This spring she’s decided to try a different approach—she bought a chamber pot and says she’ll fertilize the soil herself. I refuse to contribute, and I think I’ll pass on the veggies as well. My wife disagrees with me but says she understands, but she also shares our bountiful harvest with the neighbors, and I’m sure if I spilled the beans on her unconventional technique, she’d be furious. Should I tell my neighbors what she’s up to?

ravenkult posted:My mom isn't toxic like this one, but she keeps sending me links to jobs that are basically ''one weird trick job hunters came up with; Millennials hate it!'' And it's just some lovely jobs that require something weird, like moving to Antarctica or speaking 9 languages or having four legs. Mine just sends me jobs that look like they might be things I could apply for but the slightest glance at the description is just a paragraph of obvious things that rule me out.

quote:The members of estranged parents' forums would score high on what Bob Altemeyer calls the Right-Wing Authoritarian Scale, specifically the authoritarian follower side of the scale. (I refer to this type as authoritarian followers instead of right-wing followers to strip the misleading political reference from the name.) Authoritarian followers' central belief, the one that organizes the rest of their personality, is that authorities should be respected and shown deference because they are authorities. Authoritarian followers support this belief with double standards that excuse authorities of wrongdoing, a rigidly hierarchical worldview that keeps people in their place, and powerful resistance to any attempt to question authority. They tend to be black-and-white, us-and-them thinkers with a deep need to punish transgressors. Lol conservatives.

bell jar posted:God, I want to know what she did (outside of what she's reluctantly admitted to) QuarkJets posted:She doesn't understand things like empathy and believes that the world revolves around her. She has memories of being happy when her son loved her unconditionally and is sad now that he has his own opinions and feelings and the ability to rebuke her. "the one thing people always say about me is how real I am no matter where I am. I am always the same person" is code for "I have huge mood swings but contain emotional rampages to my home life", the emotional rollercoaster contained in her posts helps illustrate that. SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:That study posted earlier before nails it. All their memories are filtered through their feelings. They felt good when the child didn't assert themselves thus it was good. It's also amazing how much they think everything their estranged child (and everyone associated with them) does is about hurting them. And how they can't handle any form of rejection- I mean anything. Issendai says that nything tinged with negative emotion, anything that makes them feel bad about themselves, shocks them so deeply that they block it out. They really can't remember anything but screaming. This emotional amnesia shapes their entire lives, pushing them to associate only with people who won't criticize them, training their families to shelter them from blows so thoroughly that the softest protest feels like a fist to the face." quote:The depth our ED went to this weekend to hurt us has been tough.
