I would have a talk with that presumptious twit of a boyfriend, too. Who does he think he is bringing living creatures into a household without asking? Tell him to learn some manners and respect. BTW, that goes for your daughter too. I am a grandmother and my family better damn-sight respect me. Tell her "SHOW ME THE MONEY!"..Might also write up an agreement that all parties sign..Put in whatever terms are important to YOU!..Good Luck!!!!! |
I think it's sweet that you feel as passionate about it as me-in fact I think youv'e been in my head-your thoughts on the boyfriend! Yes, I do want to sit down with them both and have a heart to heart. I'm thinking I will talk about a contract, or something like that if necessary. But my plan is to tell the boyfriend, "Thank you for the gift to our FAMILY of Pippa. We love her to death, and she is definetely a member of our family now". I am prepared to have the money ready and say, "if i can be assured that this whole thing about "your dog, my dog" will never come up again, I am prepared to refund the money you paid for her".
We'll see if that works. Actually, "the boyfriend" is a pretty good guy, even if he is a little stupid. I think he will try to talk some sense into Alyssa as well. He does respond to me pretty well.
