       I'm just the worst person ever for not getting all panty twisted
       over paying for kid's college? So they'll have to take out
       loans. Just like I did. Big whoop. Welcome to adulthood where
       shit doesn't always work out the way you thought it would.

       I don't know of anyone who funded their kids' college, although
       it would have been wonderful to do so. My parents had no way to
       fund it. I took out loans and got grants. Worked full-time.
       Doable.

       Is there really a "black mark" though? Most employers will not
       tell anyone any details about your employment.

       Depends on the industry. While our company policy is to not
       comment on why we've parted ways with an employee, it's a niche
       department and it seems that everyone at our competitors knows
       the real reason.

       Carolyn's trudging through the pandemic, too. Is ANYONE his or
       her best self right now? I know I sure ain't.

       Is it me, or is Hax just meaner now?  I mean, there are two
       sides to every story and Hax isn't even considering the other
       side:  Was Husband the breadwinner?  Had he been carrying the
       family financially for decades and gotten burnt out?  Were the
       financial goals really family goals, or were they goals that LW
       had set for the both of them?  Could fear and shame, rather than
       just being a morally bankrupt asshole, have played a role?  I
       mean, look how LW reacted once the truth came out.
       YES, I am definitely making this up.  Defnitely.  After watching
       my XSIL harangue my brother for decades about how he didn't make
       enough money to fund her lavish and expensive tastes I'm a
       little bit trigger happy on that subject.
       I do agree that counseling is in order, this is definitely a big
       one.  This family is not a team.

       Could be.   "Stealing his salary" reflects her disappointment
       but also may be an escalation of mistakes caused by....anything
       really?  Promoted out of his competence, cognitive issues from
       medical or other problems, burn out as you say.....
       Answer still leads to counselling.  Let her vent her spleen
       there and it may become more clear.  Husband may be "making the
       best of things" rather than happy about the situation.

       Bad driver dude needs to lose his damn license. That LW could
       have been describing my step dad. He no longer drives and the
       world rejoices. And it hasn't really slowed him down thanks to
       Uber.

       I'd straight up lie to the old people:  "I just get so anxious
       unless I'm the one driving.  I hope you don't mind."

       The next time he says it worked out for the best, I would
       probably say "Best for YOU" and then ask him to stop trying to
       convince/tell me that it worked out for the best. Yeah, I'm on
       board with take this into counseling because this is a shock to
       the system.
