She grew up in the Bronx. Coop City, actually. She says her mom abused her and that she wasn't allowed to play outside or anything. She never owned a bicycle. I believe her. She does seem as if she had a very rough childhood. This is the reason why I can tolerate her to some extent.

However, at the same time, she carries on like a spoiled rich brat. So I gotta wonder if there were people around her who felt sorry for her and spoiled her, as a result. She loves to try to play on people's sympathy. She does it on purpose to try to manipulate people into giving her things. I've seen her trying to con people and how easily she turns her emotions on or off depending on whether they are working for her.
Apparently that has worked for her so long that she feels enabled to do it. Sad thing. :cry:

We both said a lot of things that you are going to regret.

Perhaps I shouldn't say this, and forgive me if it seems out of turn, but... stop doing things for her: stop giving her lifts and whatever else you do. Stop pandering to her. If everyone else around her did likewise, she'll hopefully grow up and learn to do things for herself. Then she won't be such a "spoiled rich brat".

All about the fish tacos

Exactly, Brandi. I understand the rough childhood thing, but this woman is now in her 50's and she left home when she was 18. So exactly when does the statute of limitations run out on using your childhood for an excuse for EVERYTHING in your life?

I gave her a bus map with the route showing her how to get to the gym. I will continue to drive her on Mondays, but on Wednesdays she will either have to get someone else to take her or take the bus or stay home.
Lighten up, Francis
