@rtstoneAs much as I agree with you on the folly of raising children without realistic expectations and boundaries, from a single mother's perspective, I must say that if you continue to criticize the parenting style of someone who is raising children that don't belong to you, you're likely signing the death warrant on your relationship. You might want to consider stepping with caution in such boggy ground. I wish you luck.
