[QUOTE="Josie, post: 427207, member: 1792"] Since I am one who said I think of them as struggling, I will add that doesn't mean I think they should get away with it. I think they might need some help with overcoming their problem but part of the help is letting them feel the consequences of whatever bad choice they made. Sometimes there might not be any other help and they just have to figure it out on their own. That doesn't mean I am not sympathetic to their problems. I still think of them as struggling with a problem rather than having a character flaw. It might just be semantics and maybe it is a character flaw. LOL And it is hard to feel sympathy when I am in the moment. [/QUOTE]
