@Mame,
no I didn't think it was normal ..she does have psychological issues and she doesn't have custody ..it was given to another family member ..I know nothing like "that" is going on and I know this isn't a "see it wverytime they're together" thing ...what she refers to is in the past tense ...when together there's always a friend or friends with.....I just find it quite awkward to try to acknowledge this topic of conversation when its brought up....
from being a parent myself that kinda thing would never cross my mind let alone talk about it ...
I'm not a woman so I thought I'd ask if this was "normal" talk...
thanks
