I'm
sorry we'll be in Aspen this week. Why don'
t you call your friends and ask them to come over.

We're going to the Reads Charity event, if you want something, Helda can make it for you.

t be home for nice dinners and family
cooked meals, instead we'll leave you a kitchen full of

I'll get you a job.
Translation: We weren'
t home or sober enough to make sure you learned the coping skills you'd need to survive in the world, so we'll call a friend and get you employment which will pay well but leave you souless because in your heart of hearts you'll know you don'
t deserve it.
I married a younger
woman/man.
Translation: I didn'
t need respect from society because I have
money, so I picked myself out a nice prostitute to be your stepmother.
