One stepmom has left her stepdaughter devastated after telling her that she would rather stay at home with her pet parrot than come and stay with her for a week to help with wedding planning and "bond" with her and her two-year-old child.
If she won’t do it for the stepdaughter, do it for her husband. She is making his life miserable.
Does your daughter still talk to you?
Great idea. What color are bridesmaid gowns? Will they go with parrot’s vivid feathers?
I like parrots. A friend had one, very smart creature, sensitive too. Don’t hurt it’s feelings, please.
her STEP daughter....hmmmm....where is the FATHER of this daughter and what does HE say about it? Is this woman still MARRIED to the father of this step-daughter?
Still married.
Stepdaughter wanted a week of babysitting
No mention of biological mother
I think of those films from the Tabasco Film Company of Havana Cuba:
Yvonne, Renée, and Loretta in “What the Parrot Saw”, and Renée, Loretta, and the parrot in “What Yvonne Saw.”
I would have given a more diplomatic reason to avoid involvement in the wedding planning. Not smart.
And the article says the stepmother feels a week is too long to be separated from her bird. What? She doesn’t go on vacation? Her poor husband.
I have one yes.
There are a shocking amount of estranged children out there. It seems to be a subset of the same phenomenon that causes the sexual changes as tribal affiliation.
I am beginning to think of subliminal messaging in all devices. It is too bizarre!
Captive Macaws can go nuts from separation anxiety. I don’t know if a week would be long enough to trigger it, or not. They become “crazy,” chewing ip all of their feathers, and muttering/ cackling to themselves. It’s bizarre, and sad. Often happens when a long term owner passes away.
One day I was working on a job and from across some Rail road tracks was a trailer park.
I heard a cat in distress meowing mournfully A real cat in trouble,went on for 15 minutes or more,
I was just about to go look for it ,then I heard “here kitty kitty kitty c’mere kitty.”
It had been a parrot the whole time.
Jeeze
