An open discussion about the troubled parent industry

I recall this one time, we were having dinner, after we had all prepared it, and Sheryl put ranch dressing on all the tables.  Some of us merely asked if we could go and get some different dressings from the fridge, as we knew there were lots of other dressing in there.  She said yeah, and didn't say much about it, because we could always use whatever dressing we wanted.  Then she started going off on us.  Saying that we were ungrateful and spoiled, and took things for granted.  She said she purposely put only ranch out to see who would ask for different dressing.  She had made presumptions prior to this about who she thought would ask for more.  She made this huge deal about nothing.  She seemed to do that a lot.  

It was sooooo stressful living there.  You had to anticipate everything that was going to be done during the day. If she wanted dinner to be started, or some cleaning to be done, you were just supposed to know about it.  If you didn't participate, because lets say, you were up in your room studying or something, you would get yelled at hardcore.
