Does anyone want to crawl under my house and check the phone lines before I go buy YET ANOTHER new router?
Sometimes there are underlying issues. Yes, sometimes the kids are just spoiled brats, but unless you know the family, don't judge them.

Thanks, Veruca!
And yes, you are better than that so don't listen to them. Let them go on and on about it to deaf ears. Hmph.

That could be arranged.

Yeah, my kid has had a breakdown or two in a store. It has nothing to do with not getting a toy or whatever. There are underlying issues and he can't help it sometimes. I'm pretty quick to try to remedy the tantrum if I see one coming, but it's not always possible to keep them from happening.

I want to go back in time to the year 2001. Looking back I feel that was the start of when I lost my way. It was the start of the rot, when I put my interests I had as a kid (which I now realize I could have kept and had a much better time) aside in order to figure out how to climb the social ladder - only to realize later that I wanted nothing to do with any of that because it was boring and empty. Paranoia, negative thoughts, indecision, dumb people, marijuana, not reading, being angry all the time (I still get angry sometimes but I'm talking daily here) thinking I had no talent and no brains so there was no point in trying, giving up on life. Ugh. All that bad stuff is gone from my life now, I took out the trash. But man, I wish I could get this last decade or so back. I could have been in a much better place today, financially, health-wise, intelligently, creatively......it makes me sad and worried that there is not enough time left to make up for 10+ years of continuous mistakes and make myself into someone I truly like. I hate the idea that it may be out of reach. I hate the idea of compromising. I look around and people my age or even younger now are doing really interesting things with their lives. People have finally gotten to the point where they aren't floundering anymore and can actually do neat things proficiently. Some of them can even command a price for doing so now. Some of my friends are on track to get married. I feel like I've wasted so much time and will forever be behind. One foot in front of the other, I guess.

There's a reason why I said "parents letting happen"... How long does your child have scream like somebody is lighting his head on fire before you make even an attempt to calm the child down? This screaming child was going on for good 20 minutes before the mother turned around & screamed at the kid, "if you don't shut your fu#*!?%# mouth! I'll smack it off your #%&$#€! Face!!!" And the dad is just walking around like there's not a care in the world... I don't have to know the family in order to know that behavior in this case was wrong... I don't have to be a professional cook to know when a certain dish taste good or bad... Or professional football player to know when someone made a bad play or professional singer to know when someone isn't really a good singer... Yeah, I'd say the parents just let this go as long as it did... I wasn't judging... I was there to witness this one incident... And by what I saw in this particular case, parents & the kid deserved the comment...
Besides, isn't this thread about what I was thinking at the moment? I wasn't saying I was gonna do something about it but as the title of the thread goes, I was thinking it at the moment...

I didn't mean to get so graphic in describing the situation... I guess I should've been more descriptive to begin with about why I came to having that thought at the moment... I read somewhere about bad parenting... And to me, that was perfect example of it... There always be an exception to the rule & always the other side to the coin & always be an untold story & etc, etc... But just as often, situation is exactly what it looks like... Remember the old saying? "If it walks like a duck & quacks like a duck, chances are, it's a duck!" "Chances" in this being, 99.99%, over whelmingly huge Las Vegas odds, almost a sure thing, type of chances... Oh, yeah... When I see a cop chasing a person, there's a 0.000000000000001% chance that it's a crooked cop trying to shake down a law biding, tax paying, priest in plain clothes... But really? It made me sad, too... But sometimes cold reality is, some people shouldn't have kids...

My head is spinning. Somehow talking to the sister of my internet guy touched me in a positive way. The perspective of someone so far away and yet somehow closer is profound. See Can you believe this in my post.
This guy told me everything would be okay. He said in his life he just always knew that. My life had so many tragedies. Homeless kid, housing projects, gang raped. alcoholic husband beat me. i still mange to be a good kind productive person. However i have that anxiety that says it's not okay. I try to hard and drive people nuts.
This time it suddenly feels okay.

Rosewood, I am so sorry you had to go through all those terrible things! You're an amazing person from what I can tell from your posts, and if people feel like you try too hard, screw them you know. You're turning your life into a positive experience and that's more important than what anyone thinks. *hugs*

Speaking to my therapist has given me so much clarity, I can't believe how much better I feel.
