[QUOTE="dashcat, post: 423989, member: 9175"] Oh it is so the right thing. This is one of those situations I put on the 10-10-10. In 10 minutes, how will I (0r difficult child, depending) feel about this decision? 10 months? 10 years? 10 minutes after the decision is handed down, Duckie may be disappointed, 10 months, she'll forget completely, 10 years - she'll remember a life lesson about keeping your word and about doing what's right. In 10 months, not one of those girls will give a whit about seeing "Prom" on Friday instead of Saturday. Don't remember where I read about the 10-10-10, but I keep three 10's taped to the desk above my computer and have made many decisions, big and small, on this scale. Dash [/QUOTE]
