[QUOTE="slsh, post: 162833, member: 8"] Oh Sharon - sending you many gentle hugs!!! I hate that crying thing. It seems to me that people ignore any other valid thing I might be saying if I'm crying (yeah, I used to be *real* effective in IEP meetings - me and my weeping eyes, LOL). You know what? easy child is old enough to get this. If she treated peers like she treats you, she'd have zero friends. If husband treated you like she does, you'd be gone in a heartbeat. This is basic human decency. You are not worthy of less decent treatment because you're her mom (OK, that's probably a stretch getting a teen to acknowledge it but ... it bears repeating to her, often). There is *absolutely* no reason for you to feel bad. Sounds like she crossed the line with wild abandon. Honestly, you are such a dear lady - it hurts my heart to think she would speak to you like this. A gentle hug to you again. [/QUOTE]
