[QUOTE="C.J., post: 75799, member: 1987"] Sometimes I don't fit in certain parent/child situations. Back to School night, college information night, athletic events with teen athletes, etc. I always seem to run into another parent with a easy child kid, who inquires about N*. I've perfected the sincere smile, and the quick answer, "She's a work in progress, and she's working on progressing." That answer doesn't say she's been through court (again), removed from my home, failed her junior year, and that my life will be much less chaotic when she's on her own. It does say that there's hope for a better future, but it will take work on her part. Coming here, even when I only have the time or energy to lurk, makes me feel like I really fit in. I look for a response to a post, if only to get more information I might use. I'm thankful the original founding site creators created such a warm caring community for some "misfits." [/QUOTE]
