Growing up, I knew that, whatever disaster befell me, I would have absolutely no support in dealing with it. Whatever it was, it would not be Fred's place to get involved. The crafty little git was highly practised in the art of getting out of doing anything. My mother could immediately think of a way it was all my fault and so it would be truly absurd for me to expect any sort of help and support from her. |

You're probably right. They just needed someone to listen while they let off steam. |

OH and I are among those who just get on with it ............. we moved to a new country 6 days after we married and then to another country one year later, so we've never had that close family support and we had to make new friends. |

But you would try to find out wouldn't you? |

Some people do like to let off steam, and some people are martyrs. My late auntie (although sweet and generous) was a pro, and my eldest sister is heading the same way. |

Sharron, if its not your problem, ignore it. You have enough to do as it is. |

That is really not a way of thinking that I subscribe to Sue. |

I'll moan about the government - but then again I never voted for them, so I did all I could.. |
