[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 740280, member: 19522"] One step forward....two steps back. Or is it? The bad-son was let go. The good- he let you know, was sorry and apologetic so he was concerned about how you felt, what you thought about him. From where I stand with my two and their circumstances, things are looking up for your son, TL. Mine would be raging, blaming and throwing up their hands. Okay, realistically? They wouldn’t have a job, or even see the need to. I am not trying to downplay the discouragement you feel. Just trying to show this from another side. It is hard, but there are positives. I hope your son is able to find another job and continues on an upward track. It seems that he is at least willing to try, and wants you to think well of him. That is a good thing. Feel what you need to feel. Let the frustration out. Out of country for three weeks! How exciting! Focus on what you need to do to be ready for your trip. Listen to some music that calms you and lifts you up. It’s going to be okay, TL. (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
