When I took my grimy little hands off of my son's business...you know what? (plse see my sig line) Things got worse in many ways...I stopped doing what I was doing...and upset the status quo. I got better and he got worse before he got better.
I think this is what is happening for us right now. I am getting better (in some ways) and he is getting worse (in most ways).
