this is one reason Elly pisses me off. Her reaction to Michael helping Mrs. Baird isn't "that was a nice thing you did". It's "why are you helping her and not ME!?" Michael's probably tired!
How come the kids are apparently more familiar with cabbage patch dolls than they are with the concept of adopted kids?
(P.S. if any kid ever asked me why I didn't have kids I'd probably tell them that was a rude question. Not that that would stop them.)
She probably wouldn't like the only rational answer: "Because you ask why I don't help someone who'd rather eat a bucket of live scorpions than be grateful."
So true. Mrs. Baird is the classic case. Mike likes doing things for her.
And the kids flat out tell Mrs. Baird why they do not like being around their mother with this one.

Because Mrs. Baird will be grateful for what I do, and you'll be ready with a list of all the things I did "wrong."
