Visas and Passports : the pain in the ass

I thought that the transit visa for my familly was ok : NO ! No Way to have a normal life with these diplomats pissing us off around !
They said that they can give us the visa but the passport of my wife's son (16 y) expire in september and so it's not elligible for a transit in july !
Why there's a expire date on passport if these passports expire 3 months before ?????
May be better to make an expire date 3 months before directly ? but there will be somebody to find a reason to expire effectively the same passport 3 months before again, and so on so your passport will expire 3 months before to you can get your hands on it ! Isn't that a kind of stupidity !
I beg your help here, band of diplomats, why a passport can't be used to the expire date ?
Well, I'll go tomorrow and try to fix that : but the russian ambassy doesn't work on friday !
So I'll have to take an half day off again, just to chase paperworks ! for a few days trnasit of a person under 18 who will become a french when reach 18 ! And this is Europe !
Haaaaaa !
