Two takes on this treatise...
Exhibit A:
"...following in sis' shoes..."

We will all face disappointments in life - many of our own making - whether its locking away the very thing we wanted and having to fork over the sacrifice for what is necessary to access it, or having something we didn't want land in our lap we can usually trace the decision back to something we could have thought of, should have thought through, and would have done differently.
It's also my own personal belief that for the most part it is the extent that the parent's are involved in the girl's life that determines whether they face the crisis of the candy coated chocolates, or the truth that can not be candy coated that life will now forever be different...
What are we doing for or to our kids... something we NEED to think about!
