They are very gracious, and used to the word "no."

Sorry Illbay, they're not all so gracious.

We lived in an apartment building in Arlington, VA for 8 years. The building was owned by a very kind older [FR 5th Amendment] gentleman. When we first moved in our rent went up every 6 months. When our son was born and my wife stayed home with him, our rent didn't go up again for the next five years.

He rented (perhaps donated) an apartment in the building to [FR 5th Amendment] missionaries. For the most part they seemed like nice young men.

But on more than one occasion, when my wife was trying to get our 2-year-old and an arm full of groceries up the three flights to our apartment, she would actually have to walk around the group of missionaries standing talking on the sidewalk.

I'm not trashing your boys. But they're not all so gracious.

After all, they're still human....so far....

You mean they wouldn't even lend a hand to a woman?
