What do you do when your parents are having problems? Mine seem to be dealing with a mid-life crisis, some mild depression, and years of constant nagging. Blech. I just want to smack them both, stick 'em into a forced diet-and-exercise routine, then make them sit down until they work some of it out.
The worst thing is that I am a licenced attorney in the state in which they live (as opposed to the colony [DC] in which I live *grin*), so there is some pressure to provide legal advice, which I don't feel that I can do in a fair and ethical manner. My mantra has been, "if you feel you need answers to these questions, go get a family law specialist, which I am not." Blech.
Parents can be so annoying. I suppose this is their revenge for the years of crap they had to endure with their children.
