I bet a lot of us are guilty of something like this, but it still ticks me off when I find out that someone is saying it about my kids....

"Your kids are so dysfunctional, and living with all of you is making me sick. I can't wait to get into therapy so I can be fixed."

My daughter's been on the receiving end of "Wendy is mad at me now" (after Wendy was having a temper tantrum about my daughter not working on her homework fast enough), being blamed for making another person mentally ill, not being as good in school as the live-in g/f's son, lazy, dysfunctional, who knows what else. She's been told that her her self esteem is so low becayse her grades are so bad. Gee, ever stop to think it might be the other way around? B***h.

What is wrong with people that they think ridiculing and blaming is the way to get someone to improve?
