[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 380773, member: 805"] Mog, Sorry it's been such a tough week. Listen, you can't change how youngest daughter feels or thinks - so do your best to let that go. Girls can definitely be moody! Oldest daughter kinda made her bed with this guy - it's unfortunate that she is placing deadbeat ahead of her own child, but thank goodness your mom and sister selflessly step in. She's lucky, if not using the brain she was given. As far as difficult child, this is tough. I wonder if you feel confident enough in the program he is in to trust their judgement on this one? Certainly, as a mother, it would be breaking my heart as well. Naturally he is upset, but isn't this kinda what he needs to learn? Things don't always work out the way we want and very often we are responsible for that happening? Maybe it's better that he's there facing these tough challenges. I know most of our difficult children have that "entitlement complex" that makes it difficult for them to deal with things that don't go their way. I don't know, doesn't make it any easier for you. I know you just want to give him a hug. As far as the financial stress, I can't find a positive in that one. Since you and husband have kinda renewed your relationship, go right now and get a big hug. Sometimes holding on to what blessings we have can make our problems a little easier to take. Hugs, Sharon [/QUOTE]
