Just got back from a counseling with 18-yr-old daughter. She revealed that a boy we both trusted date raped her last weekend.

I'm in shock. Part of me is enraged and part of me is asking God "Really? Seriously? How much more are we supposed to handle?"

Counselor also discussed D18's anxiety over college and the college applications and visits with us. I've been feeling overwhelmed because I feel like this is all on my shoulders.

C suggested I ask H for the application money--approximately $350 since I'm taking her on the visits.

I would love any suggestions on how to give him this information.

Thanks to all,
Heather
