I find it very disheartening when someone chooses to publicly scrutinize the misfortune of others. I'm certainly no expert when it comes to parenting and I know I'll never have all the answers. My children have made mistakes and will continue to do so. That doesn't mean I'm not doing my job as a parent or that I don't have their best interests at heart. It's just a part of life. Things happen that are out of our control.

You're absolutely right about ATTITUDE. It does say alot about a person and your sarcasm tells alot about the type of person you are. GentleGrace does not fit your attitude.

I'm new to this forum and came here looking for advice that would help me. Instead, what you gave me was criticism. The issues posted here are very serious and this is not a place for you to amuse yourself just to prove to the world that you are a serious law student.

If there are others on the forum that have further advice that I could actually use, I would appreciate your input. My post is titled Crime Does Not Fit The Punishment.
