Now there's a lesson from 'Chicken',please take it!
I have following stuck up in my kitchen:" You get the behavior
from people that you're willing to put up with without protest:
YOUR SILENCE IS CONSENT!" And I must add,no wonder
you have all those conditions; you are sick because you living
with someone else who is sick . . . . and it is CONTAGIOUS!
It is YOUR responsibility to look after YOU,please do so.
Meanwhile,get this for M. and work: Answer in PROBABILITIES, E.G. "You're always doing that" answer:
"Yeah,you COULD be right",or "Yeah,I can understand why you
might think that" (means nothing,leaves critic puzzled), and a
2 word answer," Yeah,possibly" and "Yeah,you're probably right enough". All probabilities, but YOU KNOW BETTER!
