MessageHi, Trin! Good deal that they accepted your decisions, and feel you, as a blind parent, are doing your level best with the children. Your mom lets herself become too emotionally involved, instead of trusting your decisions and just letting you know she is there for you and the family when you request help, she shouldn't dredge you in help and syrup, if you get my drift! I am all for home schooling; know several families, both parents sighted where it was done throughout most of high school, and then around the junior and senior years, the kids requested attending regular high school for the experience. the parents did allow the transition. Keep a stiff upper lip; I know you are doing a terrific job, and no better than that can be accomplished by one person.

Families can be our worst critics. I'm glad your extended family was so positive. Since they're not emotionally involved in the situation, as your mom lets herself be, they can be more objective and see the situation for what it is. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
