Tough Talk,
My sister has lived on the other side of the country for several years now. She plans on moving back to reconnect with friends and family. The problem is that her children and grandchildren are thugs and scoundrels who use drugs and most have spent time in jail. I love my sister; she is a good person. Her children and their children are very scary however and she is bringing them all with her. They will not be allowed over. One of them has really bad body odor too, ever since he was a kid. What should I do TT? (Barnesville, Illinois)
Barnesville,
I commend you for the honesty of your feelings. You tell your sister that you love her dearly and you would do whatever you can for her. You also tell her your feelings do not extend to her children and grandkids and how repulsed and disgusted you are by them. Especially the one that stinks. In this situation honesty is the best policy and if they do for some reason show up at you door, make sure they are greeted with a wad of buckshot in their ass. Your kindness only goes so far.
