[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 96373, member: 3647"] I went and picked up Tink. I got to see the second of my 3 stepsons. He is 13 and wants to put me on his myspace. It was like I died and went to heaven. [img]:smile:[/img] Tink and I had our talk when I got home. She says she gets it, the permanence of it. She knows about cemetaries, and she knows about heaven (explained pertaining to our faith). So she "gets" the body in one spot and the soul in another. She seemed to take it OK that he died, she understood that his "sick" was not the same as my "sick" or even Nana's "sick" (MS, fibromyalgia, CFS). A few hours later, she started. She was mad that her weekend with her father was interrupted. I reminded her that he was with his mom because they were sad. Her response was that she did not like Papa anyways because he was mean to her. She said all I care about was Papa and I should worry more about her because she's just a kid, and besides she's MY kid. I told her that she was way off base, didn't she get it that her grandfather had just DIED? She said She was mad that she would not get to see her dad this weekend. I told her to try to think about someone else, that her daddy would never EVER be able to see HIS daddy again. She said "I don't care. He (Papa) did not let me have jellybeans last Easter". Doesn't hold a grudge TOO long, now does she? [/QUOTE]
