Thanks. I know you're both right. My heart wants to scream "foul!" but my mind tells me it won't do anything but cause more conflict. It's not that I am afraid of confrontation for my own sake (far from it), it's just that I have to remind myself that I want peace and stability for my S's, even at the expense of my own sanity.
I will mention it to my L, but I doubt she will be able to offer any more advice, just charge me for the time to review my question. I need to focus my resources on the bigger picture.
I guess I'm just going to have to pray for my enemies. They really make that extremely hard to do.
