[QUOTE="WiscKaren, post: 119739, member: 4507"] Carolanne, I'm so sorry for what you are going through. I despise when innocent souls are used as a "pawn" -- and that is what your daughter is doing. My daughter is doing that too right now with us, but what gives me comfort is a saying my mom (RIP) use to say and that is... "They will need you long before you need them." And that gives me strength and comfort. I know it may not be today, nor tomorrow, but one day she will need me, especially now being a single parent. And to add a light side to this, I have made a scrapbook of what my kids have written about me....whether it be in letters, or in notes to their friends that I intervened (back in their younger days), or just written in anger by them and I came across. One day, when I am gone, and they are going through the photo/scrap books, they will really be surprised. I hope at that time, they are older and mature -- and will read them and know what hurt they caused in this mom's heart. Especially if they have kids!! LOL It is not meant to be mean to them; I just want them to understand why I felt the way I did/do at times -- mainly sadness. [/QUOTE]
