[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 633250, member: 1550"] Some collateral damage isn't even fair or rational. Jumper and Sonic, when very young, were enrolled in a Catholic School. One of the moms, who is the wife of a dentist who sent her daughter there too, went to high level management to ask that the kids be thrown out because "Their sister is a 'known' criminal and we do not pay our good money for that element to mix with OUR kids." It got back to me. Shortly after I withdrew my kids for totally different reasons, but I was flabbergasted. I guess our difficult children can have coattails that touch our other children too, at least in the minds of some. This was long after my daughter had quit drugs and she wasn't even in state anymore, but Jumper had told this kid that the police used to come for her sister, and the mother never asked me anything...she just ran with it. In this mother's mind, all of our kids were tainted because obviously the parents were horrible... [/QUOTE]
