hi to everyone
so, i missed easy child's first track meet tonight, and i'm very upset over it. she worked so hard, for the past few mos. and she"s running the 300 tonight. and difficult child just wont' let me go. i gave her the option of coming, or staying home with everyone and having popcorn. she wont go and doesn't want to be home with-o me. Sounds silly to say a child won't let me go somewhere, yet we all know how handling difficult children can be. id' have an anxiety ridden kid on my hands if i walked out and went or a nasty horrible kid with me if i dragged her off. ugh
i feel very bad i can't be there to cheer my other daughter on. easy child often takes such a hit, due to difficult child's troubles, and much less attention.
i should be there.
anyone else go through this with their other kids, you miss their stuff due to difficult child's??
