Quiero pensar que ella tenga alguna excusa razonable para su negligencia... nadie es perfecto, supongo.<BR/>Tu hijo es alucinante, valiente y fuerte. Y tu eres una madre fantástica, llena de empatía y amor.<BR/>UN BESAZO.Patrixjasyuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08757625623290476427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-42048640751639363442008-08-04T14:52:00.000-06:002008-08-04T14:52:00.000-06:00I wanted to cry as I read your post.

You are a great mom and a great woman. <BR/><BR/>I know your pain when it comes to the scouting thing. My 15 year old still has yet to be awarded his eagle that we finished in March. I'm also sick of showing up to scouts and them just playing basketball. I have better things to do with my time than run him to the church to play basketball when he should be passing off requirements in his scout book!!! Hang in there sister, I miss you.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10907940147526374990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-9599560918429014892008-08-03T11:31:00.000-06:002008-08-03T11:31:00.000-06:00I hope Girly has the same kind of experience when ...I hope Girly has the same kind of experience when she switches schools this year!!!

Finally, today, life cooperated and I was able to give it my full attention. My heart broke with yours and I just want to grab Big Brother and squeeze his precious self. <BR/><BR/>You guys are good parents. Believe it. <BR/><BR/>This is a wonderful post he will appreciate you writing years from now.Miss Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07570326989323177520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-16859983885824457292008-08-02T18:57:00.000-06:002008-08-02T18:57:00.000-06:00Thanks for the support guys, it's always so hard t...Thanks for the support guys, it's always so hard to know how your decisions will affect your kids in the long run. I know the change was best, it was just so hard...apparently moreso for me than Big Brother! I'm over it all now and moving on, thanks again for listening!I Am Boymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15325620257808590423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-44603349422829052792008-08-02T17:40:00.000-06:002008-08-02T17:40:00.000-06:00I have heard so many times that boys need that ext...I have heard so many times that boys need that extra year to mature before they start kindergarten. My son missed the cut off date so he was older when he started, and you could really tell a difference between the old ones and the young ones. I'm sure I'll be holding this baby back (he is a june baby) unless he is a freakin genius. :) Ya did the right thing. In the long run it should be so much better. It is so stressful when our kids struggle in school. You want me to come over there and get the den mom in a headlock for ya? heh hehKristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05605783419298332251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-48058994796199219152008-08-02T07:39:00.000-06:002008-08-02T07:39:00.000-06:00Wow, what a hard week for all of you.

It sounds like you made the right decision. <BR/><BR/>We also do scouts, it is hard to put the responsibilty for your child's happiness in someone else's hands. Our den leader wasn't going to acknowledge our son moving into Weeblos. Apparently he didn't know he completed the requirements.3boys247https://www.blogger.com/profile/01505366427233958542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-49423927235412150102008-08-02T06:54:00.000-06:002008-08-02T06:54:00.000-06:00Wow, Big Brother is a tough guy!

When I was a kid his age, I did not like change and did not deal with it well - heck, I still hate change and resist it whenever I can!<BR/><BR/>But kids are tougher than you think, and he obviously has a lot of experience dealing with change from changing schools several times, so he's already well-equipped emotionally to adapt.<BR/><BR/>I know it was a tough decision, but I think you did the right thing in the long run - and besides, the longer you would have waited to make the change, the harder the change would have been on everyone, and the less good it would have done in the long-term.<BR/><BR/>And if Big Brother is still a little upset, just remind him of this - Luke Skywalker left Yoda and Dagobah before he was ready and finished with "Jedi School", as it were, despite Yoda's warnings, and what happened? He got his hand chopped off. That's right.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14842634505116499312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186268422460563799.post-22548480733119519062008-08-01T14:20:00.000-06:002008-08-01T14:20:00.000-06:00I think you did the right thing holding your son b...I think you did the right thing holding your son back. I'm sad for him that he had such an emotional upset before hand, but glad that it's worked out.andriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07936122859722777328noreply@blogger.com
