Thank you all for putting up with me all these years!!! I been reading many threads and just cant comment on them because I dont know what to say or say the wrong thing. I have been reading articles on various issues that are similar to my kids and some of yours here. All I can do is cry for you all and me. After years of struggling for and with my kids, I know what I need to change about me, I have to get nerves, I have to get the strength back up, many times I feel so alone, no one understands or cares. That I will only fail if I try to become who I used to be, a confident, some brains and loved various things. I want this again, and dang it, I WILL have this again. I been told its all me, my kids need structure, the yelling caused it all. I never yelled at first- after years of this yeah I yelled which I refuse to do anymore. I know it doesnt help. I academically,socially,emotionally and politically went down hill, but not for long!!!! I have to accept ( Im working on it) that my life will never be the same, I cant go back. I have to accept that this will be a lifetime of struggles but hopefully not as severe. I let myself get defeated and Im always back and fourth on this, I know. My kids are my life, and I would have them all over again, no matter healthy or not ( of course healthy is what I want for them)
Just wanted to say : Your right, your all right, we arent alone - we get and have each other, even if its not the same exact situation we get it. We have the compassion for everyone here. I can admit when I been wrong and I have been on many things, or made the wrong choices.
Just wanted to say: We may or may not tell each other every little detail of our kids, family,health, friends, jobs etc. We may or may not believe in many things. But, its ok to be angry, hurt and scared, its ok to need others, its ok to help others in anyway you can, and I promise Im not the best at things but I truly do care about all of you and if I could would give you a shoulder to cry on with extra hugs and tissues.
(I hate roller coasters, but, maybe thats my and your best chance to scream as loud and long as you want to without feeling judged- train yards may work to or construction places)
Love ya all and many many hugs
Just wanted to let ALL of you know your cared about and appreciated.... ( I put this under parenting because I feel a lot has to do with what happens in our life how we feel etc towards parenting.. but I understand why this might need to be in the watercooler instead.. )
