Everything you say makes sense. I have been walking on eggshells so long because I have been scared to lose her and the M. I have not had a backbone in a long while and have taken a great deal of abuse in front of the kids, my employees and my friends. I have always tried to just defend myself each time. I guess I have been scared and didn't know the correct ways of stating things. I do not have a great sense of humor and "one liners" are not in my DNA. I do know that I have to start somewhere and the first place is about children. I will have to wait until she disses me in front of them because I doubt she even knows she is doing it and will not remember anything in the past.
