Holy shit...
You wanna talk about a good, solid "perspective" brainduster?
Here I am, all bleh because I've been sick and still feel a little "used and abused" because of it and then, I go on over Chablis' place and, "Wham", a dose of perspective, much like a bucket of cold water poured over the top of your warm shower, right on ya. Number one, compared to what Chablis is wrestling with, I got no problems.Number two, compared to what those kids are dealing with, I got no problems.
Number three, in the big scheme of things, my having been sick ain't jackshit. Holy Jeezus.
I don't even begin to have an idea how to do, and not do, what Chablis has to decide about.
How can you say no, but how do you say yes, too? I have neither experience nor kids of my own and the idea scares the hell outta me. They can't go back to where they were.
They probably can't stay where they are now for very long.
But, how do you deal with kids that've been treated like they have been, let alone you have your own kids to think of....
God Almighty. In a way, my total lack of the "motherhood gene" makes this easy for me, really, because I can't think of a soul who'd be insane enough to even ask me to do this.
I'd probably fuck up a semi-normal kid. I shudder to think of what could happen with kids with such emotional baggage... thanks to their shitty excuses for parents...
Somebody needs to sterilze one or both of that couple, by the way.... Anyway, before I go getting all pissy, I just wanted to point out how fuckin' awesome Chablis is to even be in this position in the first place.
That she's considering doing this makes me breathless.... Whatever you decide, I'm behind ya all the way, either way.

Thanks for the good thoughts hon. You boiled all this down to one simple sentence: How can I say no...but how do I say yes? It's been a loooong day.

I dont think Chablis can (or will) say no. No is not an option, not if you want to be able to look yourself in the mirror.
