thanks Artsy. long day...W and I exchanged emails and texts about the kids and specifically about why D16 has been so upset about the venting that happened from W. I asked W to stop doing that and told her that it hurt and confused the kids. Still my D16 us upset and rightfully so. In my naïve belief that I could get my W to see that venting hurt them, I betrayed my D16 by telling W she was upset about it. she confided in me about the trouble and I let her down. Having a very hard time with this. I really need to stay away from W and keep all convo's to business only.
Otherwise I just make a mess of things and people get hurt.
