Children here find need to change high schools just because their parents can't (don't?) buy them a brand-new BMW for their 16th birthdays. Unhappy families are rampant only because the women don't want to give up the magnificient multi-million dollar monstrosities just because their husband is a porn addict or sleeps around (and I'm not just saying it's a male thing--it is what I have seen here, that is all)--they don't want to be "seen" as imperfect. My children's father is described by many as living in his own little world. I need to learn to let go of the constant worrying of what he (or anyone, for that matter) thinks--a big problem of mine, perhaps with roots in a rather judgmental mother. I suppose my tolerance level is also, well, less than perfect. I have tried for seven and a half years. My spirit is burned out--and to hell with what others think. Thanks for the backlink. Be well.

My children’s father is described by many as living in his own little world. I need to learn to let go of the constant worrying of what he (or anyone, for that matter) thinks–a big problem of mine, perhaps with roots in a rather judgmental mother.

You sound like an amazing mom. Love your blog. And my daughter was super excited to get some love shouted her direction from a blogger she doesn't even know. (There's got to be a bumper sticker in there... I brake for bloggers' daughters?) Thanks! You sound like an amazing mom. Love your blog.
