Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Absolutely Sara! I think the hardest part for me is asking for help - and being able to ask again if the first request was not successful.... The reason it's so important to me - imperative - that divisive discussions not occur on this list is so that everyone .....EVERYONE....feels like they have one safe haven where they can talk. All are welcome here. Joan > > Let us just remember that all of us need help at one time or another.

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Tough nite I think for all of us - each one of us has a breaking point - different but still there. But even sisters disagree. We just need to learn that because we have different opinions or manners of asking or telling about things, that the big overriding issue is finding the answers we need to help our kids. > Let us just remember that all of us need help at one time or another. > Some of us are in a good spot right now but could use all our " sisters " and > our " brothers " tomorrow. > > If you need help or feel overwhelmed, aks for help.
