Why do I feel so horrible about this? tell me it gets easier.
Katie, what I have learned is that
it might not get better or easier, but I get better
in it. It's become easier for me to set and maintain boundaries. It's easier for me to take care of myself. It's easier for me to detach with love. So, I guess it does get easier.
When you look back on this moment you will realize that you did the right thing for everyone involved. You'll hear from many moms here that it was a terribly difficult day when they quit cushioning their kid's fall.... but it was the beginning of a new and better life.
BIG hugs from mom to mom
