I Shouldn't Judge You But I Will

Dear Aunt of Soccer Team Member,

You have behavioural problems with your adopted three-year old. You confide this to everyone. I just watched you give him a bottle of Mountain Dew to drink when he cried because his Gatorade (large) was all gone. At 7pm. And then you got pissed with him when he got all excited and knocked it over and it didn't have a cap on. But you ignored it when he said he wanted to beat you up and then started punching you.

You sorta suck as a parent. Jus' sayin'. I know you love them (the bio dau, the adopted son, and the fostered troubled niece and nephew). But you have too much going on. You are spending all your time/attention on the older fosterees and neglecting your babies. A Gatorade/Mountain Dew cocktail is not a good babysitter.

It's hard to sympathise with people who choose to allow children softdrink in the evening

I don't believe so. But maybe he'd marry me? "Steve The Judgmental Bastard" is exactly how I felt (I had to wikipedia him). Caffeine and sugar for a 3yo in the evening and a complete faliure to deal with the consequences? Dick.

As my mother says, you need a diploma for any job save being a parent.

At 7.00 PM, a 3 years old should be eating his last meal for the day and prepare for bed.

And, sugar and cafeine in such are not very healthy even for for a full adult.

Procrastination Special!

Folks, I'm avoiding a huge nasty task that's hanging over me and has to be done today. So in order to avoid it, I'll be offering free judgments all day! Just give me the bare bones of the scenario, facts not necessary....

Great!

My ex-boyfriend: commence with the judging! (and please, be harsh)

He really didn't ought to be spending his money on that shit, his priorities are all fucked up. Someone needs to open a whole can of whoop-ass on that dude. After he gets a haircut. And the hypocrisy! OMG! Does he not realise what a complete tit-wadded-fuck-fest of a human being he it? Jeeze. And he drives like a granny with dotted-line-aphobia.

ok, here's one.

We are trying to figure out our plans for the summer. Camps, vacations, etc.

Friends of ours moved to London suburbs (near Windsor) for two years last summer. They have asked us several times to come visit them. Have an extra bedroom, miss us, etc. So we finally figured out that we can probably swing it in August. It will be expensive for 4 tickets, but it's a once in a lifetime kind of thing, so why not? We'd spend several nights with them, and then go traveling on our own for a week or so.

So we email them that we can come in August, and they are sending all these signals like we aren't welcome now. They aren't coming out and saying it in concrete terms, but they are definitely sending a chilling vibe.

WTF?

Should we just tell them never mind, and make other plans instead?

Oh I totally hate people like that. No, you should damn well land on their doorstep without warning. Chances are they've been spinning you a whole line of bullshit about how awesome their life and house is and they don't want you to find out that their daughter's up the duff to a chav meth-head and their "thatched desirable residence" is a former council house with grass growing in the gutter.
