I think you are very wise to leave before the sleepover!
I work in homecare and I see it a lot that older adults have money and yet will absolutely refuse to spend it. Or…the children think they have money only to find that it has been used up without any real accounting of where it went.
It makes me wonder, with all the buses that will pick up seniors and take them to the casinos if we as a society are not encouraging gambling amongst the elderly.
My mother just recently got a parttime job. She sent me a beautiful text today. I am hoping that the job will help her stop being so angry. She is a CG and is always in trouble with my Dad. Everyday she is at work is a day she is not gambling. I hope this doesn’t continue into her senior years. She is only 63!!!
