I'm think...Step up to the plate and squash Vincent. I'm thinking you are not the only one at these meetings, so there are other people being subjected to Vicents time wasting blather. You don't necessarily have to go head to head with him, just cut him off, ignore him, talk to someone else. If he complains tell him to shut his fat yap. You will be doing all the other people in the meeting a big favor.<br /><br />In case you can't tell my "most pleasant" is somewhere on most people's "hostile" side of the scale, so some people may not like my advice, but I stand by it.Chuck Pergielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14473338620167201696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11653780.post-82036747300489271552007-04-25T10:50:00.000-05:002007-04-25T10:50:00.000-05:00I hate when you're in a conversation with someone ...I hate when you're in a conversation with someone and they're just waiting to talk, rather than listening.<BR/><BR/>I feel sorry for little bobo. what an asshat of a parent. funny, as you describe him, I'm picturing vincent from project runway. ouch.<BR/><BR/>keep on keepin' on, you awesome mom.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16870527550255669643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11653780.post-38797411142309605012007-04-24T15:21:00.000-05:002007-04-24T15:21:00.000-05:00My God, Jen, I admire your control.

The nerve to say that you care about the level of proficiency of sport more than you care about Joseph. He is an ignoramus to not even know what his child's diagnosis is. (maybe it's Vincent Parentitis and he doesn't want to admit that). You are one amazing woman to have tolerated him so long! Does the child's mother ever come to the meetings?? I so admire your patience with this!

And I know when I blog about something that aggravates or angers me, a lot of the tension seems to melt away simply by getting it off my chest. As I was reading your post, I was thinking "He just doesn't listen to what people are saying. He hears what he wants, then spends the rest of the time waiting for his turn to talk." Then you said the same thing, essentially. I can see how it would be totally frustrating and he had no right to insinuate the things he did, but it's probably good that you didn't confront him then and there, since the classes are ostensibly for constructive conversation.<BR/><BR/>Any time you want to vent, that's what we're here for!!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835303750336050596noreply@blogger.com
