It's very difficult to attempt to raise the child of another, especially when they've already been exposed to "life".<BR/><BR/>Keep her in your prayers, but know that you gave her your all, your best, and don't hang onto any guilt. Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is to just let go, but you can do it. She's much better now having had your influence, and that is something she will be able to take with her through life.Sidney (Sixy Mama)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16995239482766454974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502745270106603208.post-66623316668752829982008-08-12T21:18:00.000-05:002008-08-12T21:18:00.000-05:00Man, and I thought my day was rough.It sounds like...Man, and I thought my day was rough.<BR/><BR/>It sounds like you did a lot and put up with a lot from this girl; sometimes, you do all you can and it's just not what they need at that moment.<BR/><BR/>She'll probably realize eventually what you were trying to teach her. <BR/><BR/>Well done, Jill - I think she was very luck to have three years in your family.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16649638235083533810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502745270106603208.post-24654874548943435892008-08-12T21:04:00.000-05:002008-08-12T21:04:00.000-05:00So sorry.
