What's it really all about?

Thanks Kalni,

This:

And I would be more...strict, less emotional about it if it was only about coparenting. It feels a bit like...subtly pleading, as a last ditch effort? I may be out of context and cant read your previous threads at the moment, but that's what I got from reading it.

... is exactly the way I don't want it to come across...

Back to the drawing board...

Alex,

I was going to say something similar, but I never made it all the way thru the looooooong letter, so I didn't know if my comment would be fair or not.

I don't think there's anything wrong with a "parting shot/let-me-be-on-the-record" letter (I did it, as I think you know). But you can't "teach" a wayward.

Geez, Puppy, maybe you're right, maybe one can't "accept" and be "vulnerable" at the same time...

That's the tone I wanted, but, evidently, didn't get...
