YOU are different now, and deal with things differently now than you did when you put it up. Trusting yourself without that shield is kinda like your children taking their first steps....
Your right with this. I had to do that today. Normally, I would have been all business, then goodbye. I don't know what made me lower it, but I did.
I had to respond to another email regarding my daughter starting school. I hesitated, but eventually decided to tell her that I was proud of her for getting help and for what she said today.
No, it wasn't very good Db'ing I guess, but it is a huge thing for her to admit and even bigger for her to take action.
