And then she reminds me why I have nothing to do with her...

She decided to be the "cool mom" and took her twelve year old son and a bunch of his friends to see IT. I saw the movie. There is no way any child should be subjected to it. And this isn't just any kid, this is my nephew. Abuse, assault, near incest, torture, murder, gore, mayhem, psychological mind****ery - no child should experience this, even vicariously.

I always said that book reminded me of my childhood. Maybe she was trying to let her son see what it was like? Or maybe she was being selfish and impulsive and trying to create drama because her life was getting a little too boring lately.

I can't tolerate selfish and self-centered people. They are the dregs of humanity, irredeemable. People who are cruel to others because they think they'll get something out of it, or even those who just lack empathy, or *cringe* the ones who have empathy but don't care because their selfishness is paramount. My sister is why I feel this way. Seeing her in action, not caring in the slightest the effect she has on people, it's stomach turning.
