That boy. I just really want to shake him until *something* comes loose. He's pretty nice and fun to talk to, but there is no call to be that self-centered, especially when you have a kid. I'm just sorry you're stuck in the middle.

Regarding his ex...oy. How about you apologize for blowing off one of your oldest friends before you ask them for a huge favor. They're both completely self-centered. I'm sad for them, but I'm saddest for their kid.
