:nono1: in very poor taste - just my opinion. this is a personal matter, and only serves to embarrass a well meaning mom.
Thanks, Tootsie and you're right, this is a horrible situation! I did encourage my son re:sell30a's land clearing, but was unaware of the outcome, untill recently. My son has had difficulties after being overseas, that are now being realized. Not an excuse, simply fact! I had faith that he would be able to complete it and am understanding, that HE did do some of the work! Unfortunately, this is a "he said, he said" case to be worked out, between Russ and sell30a.
It would've been preferred that sell30a contacted me, before this! Not that it's anyone's business, but I emailed him of Russ' inability in completing the work, since I put them in touch initially. The deposit was for chain saw, etc.., which were to be returned. If that hasn't happened, I will be in touch and do what I can. He has no intentions of keeping the items, he's procrastinating, bigtime! He is about to leave for work at the Arctic Circle, with my brother's company. I feel that he will greatly benefit with time with my brother, as he has always been a great influence! As for any money owed, he WILL be paying that, himself!
SJ, as noted, you ARE seemingly judgemental and very much uncalled for! Unless you are a perfect parent, never havng made ANY mistakes, keep your mouth out of it! It's one thing to offer "suggestions", but you went overboard! You fault me for posting re:helping my sons or anyone else, but I can assure you, that topic has more meaning than, "SO WHAT WOMEN WANT SMILING JOE?"! I didn't intend to stoop to your level, but seems you gave me no choice! In the future, you might want to hold your tongue, or in this case, your typing! Bottom line...Is it your business? NO Am I asking your advice? NO
Has anyone out there ever referred someone and things didn't work out?
We all have good intentions and faith in people, but unfortunately, things happen! I've never condonned this situation and never would!
