They have been torn in two. However, if mom was not happy, and found someone else, things were not "fine" before, either. The kids, no matter how young, are not stupid. They will have the same questions you have about how to deal with the other parent.<BR/><BR/>Pray. I will be praying that the Spirit puts the correct words in your mouth when you need them.Chelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17119337676026420626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31174985.post-16266068178975355372008-12-15T09:26:00.000-06:002008-12-15T09:26:00.000-06:00We have THREE sets of close friends going through ...We have THREE sets of close friends going through this very thing right now which is freaking us out.

Ugh. <BR/><BR/>I wish I had words of advice but all I can say is give the dad a call and wish him Merry Christmas and let him know you are still his friend, too.Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11796461745620939785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31174985.post-18896914577761241112008-12-09T08:20:00.000-06:002008-12-09T08:20:00.000-06:00Tough call.

I never condone their behavior, but I try to be there for them when they need me and to speak to them in truth and love. So far, I've never regretted that decision.Elizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05275463210704176768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31174985.post-26870724479304572332008-12-09T05:45:00.000-06:002008-12-09T05:45:00.000-06:00I'm sure it makes her feel better about her choice...I'm sure it makes her feel better about her choices to think that her kids are "all fine". If she realized they weren't then she would probably have to realize what SHE has caused. It's so hard to remain friends with someone who is making such horrible choices. I had a friend who was doing that and I finally had to let the friendship go. I hung in for years but just couldn't hang any longer after she continued and continued to make horrible mistakes and choices in her life. I think that you could try to continue the friendship but it will be hard if she doesn't realize the mistakes she has made. This is a tough one, especially since you are friends with her ex. I will pray that God gives you guidance on what is best for you to do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31174985.post-77909569966106014612008-12-09T00:26:00.000-06:002008-12-09T00:26:00.000-06:00geeee... that is sad... if she claims to have a re...geeee... that is sad... if she claims to have a relationship with Christ - you should show her scripture. show her that she sinned and needs to repent. <BR/><BR/>i am so sorry this has been put upon you. pray and ask God to show you what you should do, and how to respond. <BR/><BR/>i hope your week goes well....
