Double Barreled Hurt

It is somewhat ironic that I commented on one of the blogs I read regularly yesterday----saying that nobody can hurt your feelings like your own kid.....because last night the guys hurt my feeling terribly and I went to bed utterly miserable.  I'm amazed by how painful it is when your own kids are thoughtlessly cruel.  I guess because added on to that is the guilt you feel for creating/parenting a kid who could be so mean....so it's double barreled hurt.  Double barreled hurt.

And even though I could say to Looseyfur that it's just part of kids being little shits----which is part of being a kid----and not her fault-----that's not how it felt when my guys did it.

Nobody, but nobody, can make you feel as lousy as your children can.
