And the point about the play is that my SD is very lost and hurting at 9 years old...imagine what she will be dealing with in maybe 3 years if she continues on this same path. Very possibly a life could be destroyed.
Yes, it's absolutely not fair for our kids. It's frustrating for a lot of us LBSs because we NEVER wanted this for our kids, or at least I didn't. Just show her your strength and be there for her.
