With Em, yes. I knew her Mother, she is the cousin of my previous best friend of like 20 yrs. I watched her grow up from a distance and felt so sorry for her life. I have always gravitated towards young girls or teens in a mentoring kind of way (not creepy, LOL). Now that we are both adults, we don't have a ton in common but I don't have many friends that I have a ton in common with so I can say she would still be my friend.
The parents of my other children, no way. I can barely have a conversation with them. It's not that we have nothing in common, it's their attitude that nothing is their fault. They are constant "victims" and that irritates me. Not to mention I have hygiene standards that they do not come close to meeting on a good day.
