    Great - Another manipulative dishonest parent

    As a mother, I've noticed that my tears can quell the intense rivalry between my two sons; they quickly join forces to comfort me.

    Plus, I love the drama.

    Does C.B. not see what's wrong with these paragraphs ? By manipulating her sons this way she's teaching them that women are dishonest manipulative emotional fakers. Poor kids. I wonder if she will think it so cute when they refuse emotional intimacy with their girlfriends/wives.
