[quote=Anonymous]These threads get heated because deep down we know the situation is very serious, especially for our children. We love them and know we have a responsibility to them. But, we don't want to give anything up, be inconvenienced, or reduce our status and acceptance-seeking. This creates an intense and uncomfortable inner conflict, which causes us to lash out, especially at the messengers. We aren't facing it even though it's the elephant in the room. It's a relief when someone says there's nothing we can do anyway, it's someone else's fault, and anything we do doesn't matter. We have a vague plan of defense should anyone call us on it in the future, "oopsies, we didn't really know, everyone else was doing it, it was just the times". But we know this is a lie, and living a lie is stressful.[/quote]
