[QUOTE="Fran, post: 293864, member: 3"] Erin, something I learned along the way was that we don't know what others are dealing with at home. Their perfect children aren't always perfect. Their lives may not be so much better. I have gritted my teeth listening to the complaints of grades, little league coaches not playing their kid or a teacher who isn't appreciating how "special" their little darling is but it's real to them. Also,if a person has to be a certain level of anguish and pain to be our friend then everyone will be just like us. Not a fun group to hang out with I would think. Sometimes the one's that have less pain are able to spare a little more support than one of us who could be totally drained. I like to think that there are a lot of people who have it better than me but I know there is always someone who has it worse. They might not be too sympathetic towards my miserable existence so I think I should give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Besides no one believes us that it's as bad as it is. : ) We believe you.
