So my mom helps watch my kids for a few hours every day while I go to work at my restaurant. I got into a fight with her and now she is being super difficult and threatening to not help. While I appreciate her help, I think she sometimes becomes a bit unreasonable. Do your parents help out with your kids (so you can go to work) and how do you deal with the family dynamics?

Consider this, you have plenty of relatives in the family on both ends of the parental scope.

I have something of the opposite problem, an elderly relative I have to help. Most of the time it's not too much trouble, but there are times when I'm torn between helping them and just going to work. I kind of envy people who don't have to worry about that, it would be nice to just do my job and not be worrying about how someone is getting on.

Ok so I was carless -- I was assembling my new bed frame and one as I was grabbing one of the long parts; I set it vertically and my fan was on and hit the edge. I literally just moved in 5 days ago and I already scratched these pristine fans, I'm irate and I want to fix it.
Is there any kind of paint. or is there a way to polish it so it doesn't look as bad :(
