PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

8. "RE: Antonia's debt all due to Dadd..."
*sigh* I do not believe that ONE factor or person is responsible for another person's bad habits (regardless of what that "habit" is) Do we learn bad habits from our parents? Sure. Do we learn GOOD habits from our parents? (even if they are bad parents?) Arguably, yes. At what stage in life do we tell someone, "Look, you might have spending issues because money was taught all wrong to you at home, BUT now that you are an adult, and it is your money, YOU are the one choosing to be a financial disaster."

I understand exploring the root cause of a problem to fix it. I also think this one is off-base for Antonia. At this point? I think the blame-finger needs to be pointed at Antonia. The point should not be how and when this started in her life. Antonia needs to accept that she's a financial disaster, not her father (though he may be one) HER, Antonia, has spending and entitlement issues. Period.

I am not interested in whacking daddy dearest over the head with a stick. I am interested in Antonia being taught how to get her life, finances, and sense of entitlement under control. So, yes, I think Antonia could be better served with learning about retirement plans, delayed gratification and entitlement issues.

But, where oh where would be the conflama? That's the problem. IMHO that's why Daddy is brought into this story. That's too bad for Antonia.
