[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 623136, member: 3419"] Confused, vent away! That's what we're here for. :) Phooey on your naysayer aunt. You can go back to school any time you want. When I was a teenager, there was an Ann Landers column from a guy who was 45 yrs old and really wanted to be a medical doctor. He said "By the time I graduate and do my internship, I will be 50 yrs old. What should I do?" She wrote back, "And how old will you be in five yrs when you don't go back to school?" :) As far as everything being your fault, do NOT let people do that to you! Blame is way too easy for people, especially kids. THEY have to take responsibility for some things right now. Your daughter needs to have her electronics taken away NOW. Do it while she's in school. Expect a meltdown. WTH, she's mad at you anyway, why not do the right thing? Same with-your son. My son was always mad at me, always blaming me, and until I realized, hey, he's ALWAYS angry and blaming me, so I may as well do the right thing, nothing happened. The day (week, actually--it took awhile to hit my stride) that I realized that, things turned around. You have power. You have control. You have influence. What you need right now is sleep, Imitrex, an ice pack, and to turn off the ringer on your phone. Once your dad is in the hospital (don't worry if he won't go in your car--call an ambulance) it will give you a break. There is no way any living being could juggle all you are doing and remain sane. Especially without sleep. {{hugs}} [/QUOTE]
