Hi AJ, when I talked with my Mom about forgiveness, she said that she was able to set aside the pain from my brother's W leaving his side during the brain cancer (which took his life) to be with another OM. My Mom ended up having a friendly r with her, and the result was that my parents have a nice r with their grandchild from my brother. So she encouraged forgiveness if for nothing more than the results that come from it.

I just got a call from W. D18 (living in another state, going to college), has over $600 in overdrafts on her account - W thought they set up the account with overdraft protection, but no. W wants me to go into the bank and play harda$$ lawyer, and I'm not sure this is my battle. I also know she cannot register for next semester b/c of outstanding school debts. I'm thinking it is time to tell d18 to just come home. I need to think about this one.
