ORIGINAL: needlesandpins i admit special thoughts for those missing loved ones. i admit Lucifyre that i hope i am never in the position of having to stand back and let my son learn the hard way. i admit sending strength vibes for you, and motivation vibes for your son so that he can sort his situation soon. i admit hugs for you too. Ya, this is not a fun feeling. I feel like the worlds worst mom. I know I bent over backwards to try and teach him as many life lessons as I could stuff into his little head before he moved out, but I'm seeing that not much stuck and it sucks. I had to learn a lot the hard way when I was young too, but I had 2 advantages that he doesn't. 1) I'm female 2) I was considerably smarter at that age than he is right now as far as common sense and wits are concerned. Though I did have it rough, and was even homeless at one point, I made it through. I knew how to ask for help and whom to ask it of. This boy hasn't got a fucking clue and it's frightening. The thing I know for SURE is that if I rescue him <again>, he will never figure it out. quote:
i admit that i wish some of the people in my life, that i am supposed to mean something to, would put as much effort into me as they do others in their life, and as i do in them. needles Boy I can relate to that statement. Though I will say, when I am paying attention to exactly that, it leads me to feeling sorry for myself...and I hate when I get that way. It's not an easy funk to drag myself out of sometimes. I think I can count on ONE finger the amount of people in my life that I don't expect to put the effort into me as I do them...and he's 10, so he is excused for awhile. Everyone else (including a certain Dom I'm rather fond of) could use a pat on the head with a 2x4 occassionally to remind them that I do put quite a bit of give a shit into them. Lucifyre
