Apparently the committee in charge of assigning kids to the happy couples blew it. Somewhere out there is a Father who lived righteously and he is cursed with the wild child I should have had.</i><br /><br />Dadgummit, I <b>knew</b> there was a mixup somewhere. One of my daughters had a stretch of a year-and-a-half long (seemed like 20 years at the time) doing <b>all</b> those things you enumerated, and nearly putting her mother and me in an early grave as a result. She has recovered marvelously from it all, and one might say that the rough patch actually did a lot of good for her.<br /><br />Her mother and I are - at least two years after the bad stuff ended - finally getting around to giving ourselves permission to recover from it, too.<br /><br />What a freakin' ride, this parenthood thing.El Cerdo Ignatiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00646154540141962389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-11477365806544413952014-06-17T21:22:42.252-04:002014-06-17T21:22:42.252-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-71108321243907421592014-06-17T21:22:22.547-04:002014-06-17T21:22:22.547-04:00My kids were easy to raise, they didn't become...My kids were easy to raise, they didn't become fucked up until they became adults, it is all a crap shoot.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.com
