Hum&#8230; not  a good question to ask me tonight.  Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I love my kids with all my heart&#8230; with every part of me&#8230; I am not sure there is any even left.  I want so much for them.<\/p>\n<p>My biggest want is for them to be kind to each other.  IS THAT ASKING TOO MUCH?  Oh yah, they have their moments.  But can those moments not be minutes, hours, days&#8230; a life time?  Will that ever happen?<\/p>\n<p>What an evening.  I realize that is part of the drama from tonight.

Is there a parent hotline?  Maybe that is children&#8217;s aid services!<\/p>\n<p>I am so grateful for my family.  I love them so much.
