Making my own good karma!!

[Silent Chrleader]

Thank you, BM, for your input.

I did have a talk with my S17 last night and told him of my concerns. The talk went well and, yes, I know they embelish the truth on those sites. I feel that S17 and I have pretty good communication on the whole and that S17, while struggling, understands my concerns and is on the right track (or at least getting there).

Right now, that kid is the light of my life. During our talk, we talked about how we are a family and that it's important that we are honest with each other, and he replied "We are not a family. We are supposed to be but we're not." That just broke my heart. He is so angry at his dad and sister, and he has legitimate reason for both. He pretends to be so tough and says nothing touches him, but he is really a tender hearted kid underneath.

We (S17 & I) move into the apt the end of this week. Excited but sad too. We have lived in that house for 15 years. We have 4 pets buried in the back yard. Will my H ever even miss what he has lost?
