[QUOTE="4PawsSake, post: 627284, member: 17993"] Wow, all these years, I've been feeling so guilty that Forest didn't have a dad. Well, that wasn't MY fault, it's his dad's fault. Let him live with guilt, if deadbeats ever do! I didn't have a dad, my brother never had a dad. We grew up just fine, we didn't hang with druggies, we weren't constantly challenging the system, we grew up to be responsible adults and GREAT parents in spite of our upbringing. Looking back at Forest's childhood...that kid had it awesome!!! He did struggle with issues behaviour wise but nothing that I didn't have under control when I had to. He was happy as a pig in $hit. It was only when he was introduced to alcohol, drugs and "the wrong crowd" that he went astray and that wasn't MY doing..it was HIS. I must sound like a babbling idiot but it does feel good to vent!! I'm actually starting to get pissed at HIM instead of feeling sorry for him and allowing him to play me on my sympathies. [/QUOTE]
