Title: A tricky problem
Post by: Nick on May 25, 2011, 07:33:35 AM
It seems The Boy's The Grandfather died yesterday. Naturally The Boy wants to go to the funeral.

He can't. The Boy's The Mother will be there  rubschin:

Is he being buried  ?

Could you not offer to take the boy up there after the event and pay your own respects how he would like to.

Good idea. I don't know, is the answer, but the Boy still wants to go to the funeral

Sometimes you have to say no ( alledgedly  lol: ) - but explain to him why - without obviously being too harsh about his birth family  noooo:

It is one of 'those times' hun when all the shit hits the fan at full blast for maximum impact and leaves you reeling.

When it all seems a bit bleak.

But that is today , possibly tomorrow , and so on ....think ahead a bit further than that and see a break in the clouds , hold onto that and make plans .  We keep going when others have stopped because we have people that need us, we have much to look forward to , even though that doesn't seem likely and we have lots to offer.
