Coming in Friday, Saturday (the day of the wedding) and leaving Sunday!! WOOHOO! AND....... best news yet, THEY AREN'T STAYING WITH US!!!!!!!! They're getting a hotel!! WOOOHOOOOOO!!!

SanDiegoLady Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,204 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 7/6/2005	I know.. it sounds mean.. but honestly it is a huge burden lifted. I didn't want to kick my son out of the room he's in and didn't know how I'd handle them and their little dog too. I won't have to see them Friday night, since I am going to stay at a hotel that night, and I will be putting flowers together anyway, Saturday is the wedding and they leave Sunday sometime. We are going to take the kids to Sea World (as a family ) before they both go home that day.. it will end the weekend nicely. Now, my daughter just has to pull her head out of her arse and quit being so obstinate and come to the wedding. She's still mad I won't take out (because I can't afford it) a 20k loan for tuition for next year and is refusing to come to the wedding because my FI defended me because she said some really hateful, mean things. sigh If she doesn't come, she's going to regret it for the rest of her life. But, in the same breath I'm not going to beg her to come, either. She made a commitment to be there and be one of my bridesmaids, she needs to realize when you make a commitment you live up to your word and there are penalties when you don't. I love her, but her behavior is not indicitive of a young woman coming into her adulthood.

SanDiegoLady Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,204 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 7/6/2005	Sadly, the impression she is going to give the rest of the guests and our family is certainly going to be a negative one. Its juvenile and irresponsible. If she doesn't contact me by tomorrow morning, she will no longer have the option to stand up for me. If she doesn't contact us by August 1st, she will be off the guest list entirely. She needs to realize there are consequences to her behavior. And, while this is a hard lesson to learn, perhaps its the most responsible one to be taught.

*~Sweetpea~* Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,747 Last Post: 3/20/2008 Member Since: 10/22/2005	I hate to sound harsh, but your daughter needs to learn it's not your responsibility to fund her college career. With some college tuitions equalling higher than people make in a year, PER YEAR, no parent can really afford it. My parents are comfortable money wise and did not pay for my tuition (beyond the family contribution) and I have 40K in loans, but that's life in this day and age. I would never expect it out of my parents b/c it's rediculous, I'm young and can pay for it (over the next 20 years haha), you know. Sure it'd have been great if they could have paid but it's really not their job. YAY for the upcoming wedding though! Good luck with the daughter, hoepfully she'll come around : ) ~SP~

I hope for my daughter's sake that she realizes college is not a birthright but a priveledge, and if she wants to complete it (her Father has footed the bill these past three years) then she'll do it herself. Man I'll be glad for this to be done and just be married! LOL

chickflick Cut Rock Total Posts: 312 Last Post: 12/16/2008 Member Since: 3/5/2006	I didn't realize that the support of your children came with a $20,000 price tag! She will regret it when it's too late. I hope it all works out somehow, and it's so wonderful that you're not going to let her selfishness take away from your excitement. Nothing you can know that isn''t known. Nothing you can see that isn''t shown. Nowhere you can be that isn''t where you''re meant to be. It''s easy. All you need is love. Love is all you need.

I didn't realize I had to be held hostage by my daughter either.. but apparently so. I thought support came in many forms, not just financially. Yanno? We are going to have a beautiful wedding.. that's all there is to it. I am marrying the man I was meant to be with my entire life. And, I'm going to enjoy every moment of it.

Well that's not cool. I'm glad to hear you're able to take it all in stride during such a stressful time. You've got my support for all of this. She isn't coming because I told her I wasn't going to try and take out a loan for her tuition, I can't- responsibly- do it. I have bills of my own too, I can't take on more debt. Its not that I wouldn't want to help her, I just can't FINANCIALLY.. you know? I love her, I'll support her emotionally, and however else, but I dont make THAT much! Thank you so much for your sweet words and all the support. Good golly, everyone must think I'm just a drama queen, I'm not- really.. this has been such a stressful period of my life.. I'm going to move past it and eventually.. life will be oh.. normal.. if there IS a normal. lol

Lorelei Ideal Rock Total Posts: 34,212 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 4/30/2005	I am so sorry about your daughter's attitude SDL, but it is HER problem and not yours! If she wants to try to " punish" you for not getting that whopping loan for her tuition, she is really only punishing herself and needs to realize that if you say you cannot afford it YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT and that is all there is to it! Stick to your guns, she will come around eventually, but meanwhile try to realize that this is her issue and don't let it spoil the most wonderful time of your life! You deserve the best SDL! Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn

SanDiegoLady Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,204 Last Post: 11/22/2009 Member Since: 7/6/2005	Thanks Lorelei & BrightSpot :) I appreciate the support you all give.. I've had some kind of a roller coaster ride these past few months, for sure.. I have to tell all you girls.. in 1998 when I got my first computer, I found a chat on aol called Moms Online.. I doubt it even exists anymore.. I have only ever personally met one person from that group of what, 15 or so women.. but.. over the course of the past eight years, we've exchanged emails and chats, photographs, seen engagements, marriages and divorces, gone through joys and sorrows and been eachother's biggest supports.. you all here at PS have a lot of the same elements. I have to say that's why I love coming here to "chat".. Thank you.. really.
