One of our number had a good friend over last night. She brought another family member as well. This friend is always well-behaved, well-spoken, well-reasoned and easy to deal with. She has built her own business and manages on her own without family or spousal support. She is always a pleasure when we all meet her at FalseCasey group gatherings.
Her family member was the exact opposite. She was one of those people who had all the reasons she couldn't eat the food that had been prepared. She insisted on closing the patio door when everybody else was enjoying the evening breeze, on moving stuff around, and in telling everybody why they were wrong and she was right, even when the evidence suggested otherwise.
When she was not given immediate gratification, she became even more belligerent and demanding. When it was all over, she watched TVand didn't offer to help clean up.
In short, she was much like TrueCasey, except for one thing:
Our friend's daughter is four, and will most certainly grow out of this phase. TrueCasey is 26.
And that's the situation here at FalseCasey Headquarters, where we are still cleaning up the devastation left behind by a rambunctious four year-old.

The 4-year-old's net worth is roughly a half-million dollars higher than Casey Serin's, as well. ;-)
The four year old has a college fund. And knowing the mom, she will probably go to college.
That will put her about 9 years of education ahead of TrueCasey. (Allowing for the negative five years of education TrueCasey has received courtesy of scaminars, NRU, etc.)
