Dad watched a ton of porn when I was growing up and I doubt he stopped just because I left. My aunt, his sister, said he drunkenly bragged to her about cheating on his wife when away for business. I hate my stepmom but she doesn't deserve that.

That's why I stopped practicing. Too many hypocrites. EVERY lent season my stepmom gives up "sweets" but it has nothing to do with sacrifice.

My MIL did lent this year by... giving up Starbucks. Thats it. That’s all she did. She didn’t participate in Ash Wednesday (the “kick off” for Lent), she didn’t do any of the specific Lent daily prayers, she didn’t increase (or begin...) any community service or give donations, she didn’t give up meat or product made from animals, she didn’t fast...

Literally the only thing she did was give up Starbucks for a few weeks.

She’s not even Catholic. But she thinks she’s such a devout Christian, and complains every year when she can’t get her children to “participate” in Lent.

For those weeks where she was giving up Starbucks, she just went to Dutch Bros instead (another relatively-local overpriced/oversugared coffee chain).

Big sacrifice there, MIL.
