We are allowed to make mistakes and its not the end of the world. THAT Could be part of your son's learning experience. There is a lot of history that helps us to jump to the conclusions that we often do...I would hope that our kids can understand that. Their past behavior set these things into motion....it takes lots of time and lots of positive experiences to begin to rebuild and heal broken trust. We have forgiven endlessly, extended grace over and over again....its ok for them to have to do it for us every now and then too. Please do NOT beat yourself up over this.

But - please be gentile with yourself- he really did train you to think that way,....it's just logical, due to past history.

I believe they understand our pain and the array of feelings we go through because of the addiction. The best we can do is say we are sorry, let them know we love and believe in them and then move on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7247382073741201119.post-22415690691279484822013-11-06T10:50:49.532-06:002013-11-06T10:50:49.532-06:00All of us have been there done that.
