Why is my cell phone bill so high.

Wow ... maybe scarier than the YouTube clip (seemingly posted by Congressman Tim Griffin of Arkansas) is the incredibly racist stream of comments underneath it.

Disgusting. After reading a few, I need to go take a shower.

Of course she did... sounds like you're paying for everything else. What does her money go to?

We have 6 year old twin grandsons and I must say we enjoy spoiling them. Now that we are older we can finally afford to give them things our daughter couldn't have because we could not afford it at the time. I know it is not good to give them everything they ask for but how do you say no?
I guess that is what grandparents are for!

That only works if the parents are instilling the right values & morals and therefore the children shouldn't be asking for everything under the sun. Otherwise you end up with entitled grandkids.

True dat! We do have to take responsibility for her sense of entitlement. She only works to pay for gas and spending money. Hubby and I weren't raised like that and definitely spoiled our kids more than we should have. Wouldn't say we're the worst parents though, our oldest and youngest daughters have a better work ethic and self pride than she does but each kid is different. Oh well, she'll be on her own in 5 short months, not that I'm counting
