<p>Chathan and Payn4ward, way to go. </p>
<p>I am sure that almost all parents feel the same way-- I feel higher when my kids get what they want than when I do-- I feel worst when they get hurt than when I do. One of the most difficult things about them growing up is that you can’t “make it all better.” And that hurts us too.</p>
<p>exeterhopefulmom and jahphotogal–it is a tough lesson for her to learn at a too young age to have to learn it-- but let her know that the test of a person is what she or he does when life hands them lemons-- will she or he make lemonade? </p>
<p>My heart goes out to your families.</p>
