Whoa! It's not bunk Coach! Maybe a better choice of words would have described what I meant better...my point is this...the anger and the pain and the hostility that my children are feeling as a result of all of this is mainly being dealt with by them and I. Their mother has absolved herself of any of it. I'm not 'absorbing' their feelings...I'm dealing with the effects of their feelings (and so are they). It's a rough go, but we'll get through it.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
