Let's make sure to call one another this week, ok?

That came later.<BR/><BR/>It's still no excuse for the disrespect and there is no earthly reason for you to tolerate it.<BR/><BR/>We're getting a lot of it from the 14 year old these days but for different reasons. I usually stay calm enough to walk out of the room.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283823157675990935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36692943.post-49358558065928464442007-07-07T20:55:00.000-04:002007-07-07T20:55:00.000-04:00After reading your post, I wonder, have our daught...After reading your post, I wonder, have our daughters somehow been talking?? Teenagers suck!! I also, am shocked by their disrespect. It is like we have to earn it, when in my opinion it should be a given. These are hard times for us moms, and thank goodness we have the support of our programs. You will get through this, at least that is what they tell me! Good luck!My Name Herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497566881306703954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36692943.post-7964470592140530452007-07-07T16:02:00.000-04:002007-07-07T16:02:00.000-04:00I hear you Patricia.

But recovery just changes us. I think we begin to truly VALUE ourselves...and it gets harder and harder for us...when someone tries to de-value us.<BR/>You'll get thru this hump in the road darlin'. By staying sober and going to meetings....you really are teaching Angel to respect you, even if her behavior does not reflect that.Pammiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00513814300181006348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36692943.post-70087680878696554792007-07-07T00:38:00.000-04:002007-07-07T00:38:00.000-04:00Funny how going to a meeting can alleviate us from...Funny how going to a meeting can alleviate us from a mini (or even big) funk. Sure there may be more to process but you sound like you are in a better place now. I have no idea what it would be like to be a parent in such a situation. I know there are others that can guide you through this and offer you theor experience. This is one of the greatest gifts of the programs.<BR/><BR/>All we need to do is just show up :) Don't forget when we show up we are also helping others too.Gooey Munsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04592004042013543535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36692943.post-6814430719763438352007-07-07T00:26:00.000-04:002007-07-07T00:26:00.000-04:00I don't know if I could deal with a teenager, esp....I don't know if I could deal with a teenager, esp. one that disrespectful.<BR/><BR/>I can't get over how much more positive you wrote when you got back from the meeting, it changed your whole sense of being. Amazing what AA does for us! You know better than to isolate, esp. when you're feeling bad, you just get worse. Don't do that again! That's a strong suggestion hmmm. Glad you are feeling better. Keep posting, & going to meetings, & calling people, & talking with your sponsor, all of that. Or at least some of it all the time.sharonsjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10397338051674165096noreply@blogger.com
