I would beg to differ with you on that point - I grant you have your experiences, I have mine. I have worked in ERs, have met many unstable women with kids.

My son, a real live Marine, has dated such a crazy woman. And I mean, crazy. Hot? Yes - and crazy sometimes as well.

A screechy, bitchy, (add your own description here) out of control woman is perfectly capable of running anyone down.

Note to self - "mom" is in her "20s" Lad is described as eight years old.

Note to self - do math

Mom became mom at 18, she is 26.
Mom became mom at 16, she is now 22.
Interesting maths, yes?

"Interesting maths, yes?"

Very much so, no less for the fact that 16 + 8 = 24, not 22. :)

“Mom became mom at 18, she is 26.
Mom became mom at 16, she is now 22.”

Or Mom became Mom at 19 and is not 27, or 28, or 29. She is married after all.
