[QUOTE="donna723, post: 215940, member: 1883"] Linda, I am so very sorry. There just are no words. It's no wonder that KT is having a rough time with all this, especially considering everything else that she's been through lately ... it would be more surprising if she didn't! But I don't think you're back at 'square one' at all. It won't be easy for her and it will not happen overnight, but I believe she will work her way through this. Even with all her problems, in many ways she's a very mature, very capable young lady. And she has YOU! I saw that with my own kids, even though what they had to contend with was minor compared to what KT has gone through in her short life, poor kid. But as many times as their father disappointed them, as many times as he hurt them and embarassed them (and finally left them), they always knew that I was there. I really believe that as long as they have one good, strong, consistent, loving parent on their side, one that they know loves them and that they can rely on, they will be able to work through it. It wasn't easy for my kids and they had a lot to work through, but I think now that they see him from a more mature standpoint, he still angers them but they don't give him the chance to disappoint them anymore and I think they actually pity him a little. It's [I]his[/I] loss, not theirs. [/QUOTE]
