1. Family-rate sterilizations so they will be terminal nodes.

2. Judging by the size of the US deficit and the reasons for it
I'd postulate those folks aren't the only ones stealing from their grandchildren.

Rats eat their young sometimes.

5. I hate to agree with you......
but I think you're right. I also think it works the other way around more often than not. The elderly can be just as vulnerable to this type of abuse. This economic squeeze is going to cause a lot of pain.

6. Forgive them. And hope they learn better. But it's difficult to do.

7. That's not family.
That's just assholes who happen to be related.

Big difference.

8. I'd like to hear the rest of the story
because I'm sure at least half of it is missing.

However, some family members can be toxic. Those are the ones you restrict to an Xmas card every year and nothing else.
