[QUOTE="Fran, post: 179184, member: 3"] crazymama, I have heard that over and over. I disagree with it. I think everyone gets challenges in life. One can rise to the occasion and meet the challenge or one can put their head in the sand or become a victim. I don't think any of us were given special skills over anyone else. We are normal people doing extraordinary things. In the end, we learn a lot and we learn even more about ourselves. I resent when people make me feel like I am "a saint" for having a difficult child. It sets me up to be something I'm not. I fail, I hate, I cry just like everyone else but I am my child's advocate and mother. I will do it to the best of my ability. Either way it is a nice thing that people infer about the job we are doing. [/QUOTE]
