[QUOTE="Star*, post: 365033, member: 4964"] Ahhhh Jane...... You know what? I don't know if you gets a cookie or if you gets a badge and secret membership handshake with a welcome to the club. The I am done for the zillionth time club. Somewhere in the deep recesses of your mind - HERE IS MY CHANCE to shine came beaming to the surface and once again like a true difficult child - they throw mud over it. I think unless you are a psychic, or something like that - you will have hope as long as you have air. It just gets pushed back so far that eventually you determine for your own good - that EVERYTHING your child says is a lie and you just politely listen on the other end of the phone and sound optimistic while agreeing because it's easier to have a conversation where you agree instead of one where you say "YOU WHAT? YOU'RE an IDIOT, YOU'RE A LIAR." and then engage them in another meaningless conversation where in - YOU go to bed for three days and carry it with you or you decide NO MORE I MEAN IT." the bottom line is no matter what lie they throw at you? You'll always wish and hope there is some truth to it, because when THEY get off the phone? Their conscience is clear - They told you something you wanted to hear and they consider it mission accomplished. Remember they are masters of diversion and procrastination. So - if it makes you feel any better? (shows secret handshake) -which at best is putting your thumb on your nose and waiving the rest of your fingers wildly until you feel compensated or ridiculous. Then let it go....put it in a bubble and let it go. (poof*) I'm sorry you hurt - I know EXACTLY to the 10th power how you feel and where you are - but don't say you're done - because ....well because when you say that? Unless you STICK TO IT FOR LIFE? When you do come to her rescue again or talk to her again or ask about Liam - again? You'll feel like a failure because you gave in. Compromise with yourself and stick to the things you KNOW you can do....and let the rest just fall by the wayside, chalk it up to being the parent of a mentally disturbed child - and know you did the very best you could in the past, present and future. I hear ya' sister loud and clear. HUGE hugs and love Starbie - the I SHALL NEVER BE FOOLED AGAIN BARBIE --:surprised1:---she comes with earplugs, a blind fold, and a nose clip....(cause that's BOUT the only way you'll never be fooled again).
