Did someone give the tough love to that weirdo with the ILs who paid the bills?

You know, the one who thought they should butt out yet pay for her health insurance so she can stay home and have babies, because that's what her values dictate?

  • I said some things, but I'm not sure I was that harsh. It didn't appear that anything was sinking in though.

    Seriously.  We're all listing out problems w/ their relationship, and we get a "yeah, I'll table TTC because everything is his and hers and that will be bad".

    Uh, dude.  That's not what we're saying.  At. All.

    Yes, she kept coming back to how it was the ILs fault and not her own DHs. Just can't see it or doesn't want to see it I guess.

  • You all lost her as soon as you didn't agree that her inlaws should be paying for her health insurance too. Seriously, did you miss the part about them being WEALTHY? How dare they not pay her bills too? And no one gave her any good advice for getting her inlaws to butt out of her and her husband's life.

    I know.. seriously. We were way off mark.

  • I'm so bummed she DD'd- I wanted to see her response to your suggestion that she work and her husband could be a SAHD.
  • Don't you realize that 20% of this country thinks the gov't(taxpayers money) should pay for anything they want and that to work for it isn't right. Thank God were about to end the handouts in 2012 with Obumbo getting voted out.
