[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t think 3rd tier friend was offensive or insulting. What would you call a person who is a friend but not a best friend or even a relatively close friend? I might say “acquaintance” but it sounded like maybe this was someone who was in the lid’s friend group but not one of his main friends. Either way I think you’re unreasonably worked up about that, and half this forum is people criticizing what other people eat rudely. [/quote]

I’m just trying to figure out why her son is so unpopular that none of his 1st and 2nd tier friends were available for vacation.

I’m guessing most  of the skinny go-getters she wanted to use as examples to her son had actual jobs and things to fill their time. She was left with her sponge of a son and third tier friend. [/quote]

Why crap on my son? He's way cooler and more chill than I am. He is home from college and most of his other buddies either had their own family vacations or had work and couldn't take off a week. He's not lame and unpopular just because you think I'm a b*tch. He's arguably the most likable in our family, probably because he's so nice. [/quote]

You didn't seem to have a problem crapping on someone else's son.  Why should anyone else treat you or your son with kid gloves?[/quote]

+1 I'm sure the other kid's parents think he's a perfect angel too.[/quote]

My son can be a twerp for sure but other parents always commend us on his impeccable manners. I can confidently say he would never treat a family who hosted him like this, whatever other faults he has. And if he did, I would feel he had fully earned their derision. [/quote]
