    Playing hard and fast with Gretchen’s age is just another way to shave a few years off of everyone to make Walt seem younger!

    That is the real issue here: Is Gretchen “down on her luck” or is she a “freeloader”?.And for once, Slim is being played as the one who’s catching on – Clovia is clearly in denial!.Clearly, the dog must go. And the relationship between Gretchen and her so-called agent needs to be investigated..Watching his dog while he is away on a so-called business trip seems hardly professional..I think Gretchen is being dishonest with everybody..At the very least, she is being dishonest with Slim and Clovia.

    When children as adults have no jobs hard to ask them to leave. Were Gretchen is concerned she needs to seek places for training. She can start with fast food and work up. Classes will also help.I have 30-year-old looking and applying for work nothing is happening. Jobs are very scare here in KS.

    JPuzzleWhiz: True, the so-called “agent” is the real villain here. Nevertheless, Gretchen has not revealed her true relationship with this obvious charlatan..That she has his dog is the biggest flag and whistle going off and can be seen and heard for miles and miles…

    I think there are probably plenty of older people out there, people YOUR age, who text and tweet as much as any young kid.

    I don’t think Slim has any room to talk about anyone else’s shortcomings. Except somehow, against all logic, he’s her father.

    Gretchen April Skinner was born in April 1978. She is 35 years old, not 25. She is less than a year younger than my middle son, so I know she is well beyond the years when it is normal to waste away her day. I am disappointed that she grew up to be the woman she has become.
