Tough Talk,
My oldest daughter just started grammar school and one of her friend’s mother is just the snottiest piece of crap you would ever not want to deal with. Arrogant, condescending and of course stupid as a post with the easy insult or hostile remark. And it looks like I’ll be dealing with her for the next several years at least. What do you think I should do TT? (Albright, North Carolina)
Albright,
You need to put this woman in her place and need to do this immediately. Start thinking of come back lines and your own burns and put-downs like, “At least so and so doesn’t act like a pig,” or “at least no one hates the “guy/woman like some people around here.” Don’t be afraid to tell her off even if it’s in front of the kids. It will be a good learning experience for them.
