 Posted: 09/10/03 - 22:53 Post subject: whats the deal? (adults only please...)
so the bfs grandparents just bought a house in ellijay, ga... his mom and dad were going to go up there for the weekend. but when the little brother said he didnt want to go, mom said that they would just go up for the day.
when we all (bf, me, and little bro) asked why, she said that since the bf and i werent married little bro could not stay home with us.
the weird thing is that the mom and dad are aware that the bf and i are not that inocent... and they have left the three of us home alone before several times...most recently for a week when they went to philly in june...
everyone knows whats going on, we try not to advertise, especially with the little bro...
so do you think shes just going senile since she is like, over 50 and stuff  , or is there something the rest of us young'uns are missing?
backgorund info: the little bro is 17... i have lived with the bf and his family for a little over 4 yrs, we have sepate bedrooms...

When I read this I was wondering if they decided to do this because they were going to visit the grandparents. Perhaps they didn't want the grandparents to know? You know...that might be a hard one to explain to the "elders". Understand what I'm saying? Just a thought.

well, the grandparents actually live across the street (from our subdiviision) and i dont think they are going this weekend...plus they have been aware of when the 3 of us have been home alone before...you know, mom is always prepared and along with our list of emergency numbers, she lets the rest of the family know whats going on too...

How old is the little brother?
Could your boyfriend's mom be "under fire" by what "The Jones'" have to say? Like...getting pressure from people for allowing it to go on? Get it? Sometimes the Jones' can be the culprit of mixed opinions. I had that going on when I was a kid. Everyone had to tell my parents who I should be hanging out with...when...where. Just another thought there.

the brother is 17...
not too sure about the joneses....i dont think she cares what other people would say, especially with as long as ive been living here (just over 4 yrs)
the only other thing i can think of is that there has been mention of the grandparents giving the bf and i a house "as soon as we get married". well, as much as i would like to get engaged and im almost positive that i want to marry the bf...weve been having issues lately and neither of us wants to rush into things. on the other hand, we have been together for 6 yrs. and ive been hinting around that im not waiting forever for him to propose... if things arent in the motions of at least engagement, im prolly not going to stay in atlanta after i graduate in may.
maybe the whole marriage thing is an attempt to plant the seed of picking up and really starting adulthood?

maybe the trip to Philly didn't go so well "in their imaginations" so they decided between themselves that that won't happen evah again...they were getting a bad vibe? like, maybe

Could be that. Could also be that mom has decided that she doesn't want the 17yo to witness something, anything, that wouldn't be going on if she were there. Just because they all may know that you're not "innocent" doesn't mean she wants proof.
Did anything happen while they were gone in June that would make her worry?
In any case, I don't think it matters one way or the other. She's the mom, and it's her home, her under-age kid, and she's just going to do what she feels is best. I wouldn't take it personally. It's obviously a mom-thing.
