[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 350429"] Thanks everyone. Star...great comment (s). Awesome wisdom and enjoy the humor (whizzing.....heee hee). As a side note...husband and are content with our response (or should I say non-response) to that call. It was stressful, but we knew immediately how we were going to handle it. TALAN...had a feeling you might relate. (Hugs). Crazy/VA...Cause & Effect....Yep, either they can't see a connection or the connection is twisted. Similar to what Star says. difficult child has to make us out to be bad guys and she out to be the victim. This gets her off the hook when it comes to responsibility. She doesn't feel good about her own personal abilities. And she uses the idea that she is a victim as a coping mechanism. Without this excuse, her coping mechanism is gone and she will have to do the hard work of asking for help IF needed, working very hard, being responsible, accountable and most importantly...moving forward. Janet...Had to chuckle & smile when you said that some folks say boys marry their moms. Who knows, really, However, that made me feel good. 'Cause our son married a really nice girl who husband and I both like. (Thank G-d). Our son is really straight laced (another Thank G-d) and I think his decision on the type of gal he married had much to do with who he is, etc. Hang in there... p.s. Just stumbled across this[B]...."Shallow men believe in luck, strong men believe in cause and effect." Ralph Waldo Emerson [/B] [/QUOTE]
