I know you have a busy schedule with bein a single mom....I'm a single mom of 3 recently divorced, well almost a year and let me tell you its hard... I have 2 boys n a girl ages 9,6,3..The boys are my oldest ones...I have recently started taking my kids to counseling which some of you may think is dumb, but its not..I have my 9 yr old givin me tude already..Hes a very good loving boy but has a hard life due to some decisions I have made in mine...Hes a mixed child...I wouldnt change him for the world..but kids go through so much these days and some ppl are right we as parents are scared to discpline our kids due to the fact the school systems have told are childern if we spank them or yell at them we are abusing them..Thats a bunch of ****...My son came home one day n said "Mom they told us at school if you hit us or yell at us and we feel scared we are to call 9-1-1" My response was heres the phone next time you get in trouble call the cops and you better pray they get here fast..I dont whip my kids...I take things away and that seems to work for me..But maybe there is something your daughter wants to talk about but is scared to or she just doesnt know how to share things with mom or grandparents thats why I suggest maybe a school counselor..I'm saying that is your issue but explore everything that you can..I'm glad I did, I can tell its helping me and my kids..I was raised you was warned once and that was it or you got a good smack...Your doin a great job bein a mom dont let anyone tell you any different keep your head up and I hope things get better..:flowerforyou:
