[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 122707, member: 3647"] Aw, David. Hugs for your daddy heart. The worst thing a parent ever has to go through is seeing their child hurt. You would do anything to stop that pain.You just wish you could wave a wand and make the pain go away. His tears are cleansing. He is learning and growing from them. It is probably (dare I say) harder for you to hear them than for him to experience them. I am almost 40, and my dad STILL can't stand to see me cry. If I start crying, he just wants to shush me, and sometimes I just need a cry. Anyways, I am a little off the subject. When you hear that he is hurting, you are going to want to think with your heart and not your head. Which is probably why you are such a caring father in the first place. You did the right thing. Vent to us, go ahead and cry yourself (you always feel better afterwards) and then go back to operating on logic instead of emotion. I am glad you had a nice visit with him. This, my friend, was the first of many steps towards healing. Keeping you in my prayers. [/QUOTE]
