Not really. I'm a lawyer too, and she annoys me as much as anyone.

No, my noticing she is a lawyer was not intended as offense -- it's that her relationship with her son about "cheating" and his issues with "fairness" were tempered through the viewpoint of a lawyer. That is, in dealing with "rules" from a lawyer's point of view, there are rules that you decide you want to live by and there are rules that can be contested based on whether you think you have a better argument than the other person.

Again, this is not in offense, it's why we hire lawyers in the first place -- because a lawyer can find something to support in either side of any argument. Or else the lawyer is not very good at his or her job.
