In reply to the discussion: NJ teen Rachel Canning who sued parents goes home [View all]calimary
(90,079 posts)We have a daughter. We thank God down on our knees every day that she's as well-adjusted and level-headed as she is. She astounds us sometimes. She chose every date and every boyfriend carefully and objectively and never had many clouded-vision days. Incredibly clear-eyed and analytical and feet squarely on the ground. She never gave us any grief. Now she's out on her own, graduated from college, working full-time and just got promoted, and her guy now is really a terrific, intelligent, loving, and responsible young dude. DAYUM we lucked out!!! But then again, we worked on it very carefully from the beginning. And her little brother pretty much worships her (with good reason!). The rule around our house when they were both growing up was "much blessed, much obligated!"
Gotta admit, my first thoughts and concerns went to the parents. Granted, I'm thoroughly on the outside looking in and don't know all the details or internal circumstances. However, their daughter still sounds like a spoiled snot-nosed brat to me. My first thoughts and concerns about her were - "SHAME on you!!!"
