[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As parents get older they tend to get details wrong, I've noticed. They'll use a job title that is wrong, get the company name wrong, overstate a role because they don't actually know how the kid's company is structured, and so on. Same with kids sports.[/quote]

This was definitely a deliberate lie. My friend didn't forget where her son lived or with whom he lived.

I don't care about that, but I do care that she lied. It's weird.[/quote]

I don’t think PP was responding to your earlier post, but you seem strangely vested in your friend’s adult son’s life and on tattling here. Maybe she lied because she realized you’re gossipy like that?[/quote]

No, she was trying to wrangle an invite to a family event.

I'm asking on here because this is an anonymous site. Gossiping would be asking people that she knows or outing her. This could be anyone. That is why I didn't give personal details.[/quote]

Not everyone can get a wedding invite, some are very small venues or budgets or desires.[/quote]
