[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 588804, member: 805"] [FONT=comic sans ms][SIZE=3]While I do believe that our children have to make their own choices when it comes to faith as they get older, guiding them when they are young is part of what I believe my responsibility was. The only thing you can really do at this point is understand that she is at an age when "what my parents do, believe, say, like... is uncool". She is trying to feel her way and the shock factor of mom makes it sweeter. Understand that you gave her the base that is hopefully part of her being and she will be able to draw upon it when needed. Perhaps you can speak to the youth director to see if he/she knows of any volunteer opportunities in the community she can do this summer. difficult child doesn't need to know you spoke with the youth director - they usually have far reaching community contacts. Remember, this is really just a minute in time..... Sharon [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
