[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ladies are truly incredible. Not a single one of you would do what this woman did, and if it were your sister-in-law -- or your mother-in-law! -- you'd be calling in the cavalry! Parenting Rule No. 1: Once you have kids, you raise them. In good times and bad. Then, when they're adults, you move to Central America. You don't walk out of the movie at intermission.[/quote] Exactly.! My teen calls me awful things all day ( and is also remorseful, teary, huggy within a few hours). Doesn’t mean I walk out on her, to let her dad raise her. I know her brain is still developing and impulse control is not her forte at the moment. You give birth to a child, you raise them to the best of your ability. They benefit from both parents being in their lives, whether they are perfect or not. [/quote]
