 My 14 year old daughter has been nagging my husband to get her sanctioned to be an umpire for over two weeks now so she could earn some money. It's finally happened, she finally landed an umpiring job and guess what? She wants to skip it to go play ball with another team that is short of players. My husband thinks she should do this. She also wants me to driver her into town today to buy her the new Sims game on credit and she will "pay me back with my umpiring money." Excuse me????? My husband thinks I am just a B#%*$ for this. My husband is also 40 years and constantly broke, has poor credit and lives on a whim. What am I supposed to do? I told her no Sims game if she does not work. She's in tears over this. I am not backing off. I told her the only way she gets the new Sims game is if she umps tonight to show me her good faith (she doesn't know she's not getting the game until it's paid off). I AM SO FRUSTRATED I COULD CRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Geez, how frustrating! sm
It may sound snotty, but I switched eye doctors just because the receptionists ignored me standing at the desk, but doting on the male that walked in the door behind me. No way I would put up with what you did UNLESS he/she was an exceptional doctor. If you really like this Dr., then always get the day's first appointment. If you can, check out other places to compare. I went to 3 dentists before deciding the first one was the best for me. Sorry you had such a rough experience. The guy you went to needs a partner, and I don't' mean an intern.
