[QUOTE="CCRidr2, post: 43312, member: 3714"] SRL, Didn't most of us have that un-Mother's Day thing going?? It would be nice to get our perfect day but we probably never will. [img]:sad:[/img] My kids usually try to be nice but it usually breaks down into some WWF match or some similar stuggle. I did get a coupon from our difficult child "for doing anything you want me to do".....of course "listen and behave" are not on the list of "anything". But such is life and in my case I chose it knowing, mostly, what I was getting into even if husband didn't see the writing on the wall. husband thought, wrongly of course, that he could "change" my kids' difficult child bio-mom when they got married and that all her problems were attributed to her overly controlling parents. They weren't, of course, as we all well know. But now she is gone, 8 yrs ago, never to be heard from again. We keep watching the obits, just in case. Sadly, we have become her parents instead of becoming our own because of difficult child. My only saving grace is that bio mom's mother has been there done that and is my biggest and only support besides husband. All others in our families think we, especially me, are just too hard on him and should "lighten up". My mother in law actually said this to my husband. UGH! Anyway, I'm going to be nice to ME today!
