[QUOTE="witzend, post: 192773, member: 99"] Janet, I hope he does ok, too. I hope that the rest of you do ok as well. Don't beat yourself up, Janet. You're not perfect and you were pushed to the brink. I can't remember who said it, but they were totally right when they said that Cory said what he said in order to get you off point about his smoking dope in your house. [I]Don't[/I] feel guilty about it. We have all said horrible things to our kids, and Cory pushed you so much further than most any mother has to put up with. So, you sunk to his level? Your relationship was on tenderhooks in any case. You don't owe him an apology, although I am sure you will give him one, because that's the kind of person you are. A person who cares. And you didn't mean those things even if you [I]did[/I] feel them. When some time has passed, and you all know the consequences of Cory's behavior, you will have time to decide what you want to do in the long run. It [I]is[/I] sad that you will have plenty of time to wait for that to happen. I wish I could ease that pain for you. But I hope you won't burden yourself with the guilt of words said in anger when it was in all likelihood what Cory was pushing you for. To get you angry enough to forget that he was yet again violating probation in your home. How's your pain level? [/QUOTE]
