An Explanation, that's all.

A series of complaints to Jo on webcam:

“I had to learn to get along with everyone else, why can’t anyone else learn to live with me? I’m sorry, that’s not fair! Why do I always have to be the one doing the Changing! I would never ask anyone else to change. Yeah I know I am crazy, I am intense, and yeah. But I just get excited! That’s all. Why doesn’t anyone understand that? “

"When my daughter was little, we were in a cosco, and cosco is a huge huge warehouse if you've ever been there. She disappeared. So I got scared. I went to the front desk and asked them to page my daughter and they said "Sorry. We don't page anyone here." Well, for them not to page my daughter? Excuse me! I walked all over the store and I screamed at the top of my lungs for her. She heard me. I've always been a helicopter parent, and I don't care."

"See, it's just that no one understands me."

Not exactly sure why she thinks that helicopter parenting is a good idea. :/ Not exactly sure how the first part started a rant about how she managed to find me in a cosco. Was she learning to live with me? Was cosco not learning to live with her? Is helicopter parenting something that people should just... learn to live with?

O.o
