[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 248489"] What bothers me the most? When I look into difficult child's eyes and he has the shine of happiness - I feel it. Excitement - I feel it. When he is scared - I feel it, sad or angry - I feel it. I feel all those emotions with him. I take off work, sleepless days/nights for him. To experience all these emotions with him. To feel sad when he is becoming independent, to miss the hugs and kisses when he was younger. I feel guilty I had to work his entire life. I am jealous of the mom's that get to stay home. What bothers me most? Looking into the eyes of those 14 children and know that there just is not any possible way they will have that time they deserve with their mother. I have been at school for events, plays, music recitals and seen the sad faces of kids whose parents couldn't make it. How in the world can these kids share a "family" moment like that? Sports? Music lesson's? how about a Mom and Me day? That can't happen. it is just not possible. Even with donations and help. There just is not enough hours in the day to have the time for each little person. And some needing more than others. I feel for all here. But these children, ALL of them deserve this chance. I believe something needs to be done. As angry as we all get. I know we can recognize a look in our childrens eyes. Without a word we could tend to it. What if you missed it? That is what bothers me.
