Boo, you found it! That was the one I was referring to.

Anthony, I don't find offence. Because A. She doesn't know he said it. And B. I set punishments, not my children. Just saying what my son said... I do think he will be a very firm but good parent one day. But right now I am the parent and he knows it. That was why I replied to him "thanks mom" it was sarcasim. And while at it, when the boys were allowed to rip her a new one it consisted of a major guilt trip of how she could talk that way to mom how would she feel... and yada, they did not put her down. I do not allow my children to be abusive to one another. I grew up in that home too.

She will though have to read that book and I was the one who checked it out for her the day before, her comments yesterday just confirmed to me she really needs it. It is a book to empower women and use common sense and fight hard. He does care for her and he wants to see her grow into an intelligent woman. But he is a straight shooter and will tell you exactly what he thinks which everyone in this house normally does. Only problem with the girl is she speaks BEFORE thinking. Working on turning that around.
