Of course, C and I have gone through being misunderstood, disliked, or at least just on the "not on my 'A' list of people I want to know" list in various people's eyes, so we could sympathize.<br /><br />We just reassured them that they had a lot to offer, were good, worthwhile human beings, and that other friends clearly still like them and want to do things with them, and that some people are just not going to "get" them, and try not to take it personally.<br /><br />It's never as easy as just <em>saying</em> that, of course, but we get through it together in the end. Lots of cheerleading and empathy.vaxhackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230489514627637967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-13290311263884489002011-10-07T16:43:02.376-07:002011-10-07T16:43:02.376-07:00Oh, that's so sad, Julie!

When I was in my teens somthing like this happened to me, and my Dad just kept telling me how much he loved me, how great I was, what amazing things I do...

It still hurt, but I had two very important people in my corner, and that made all the difference.1000 Miles in 2021https://www.blogger.com/profile/05087449361750158655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6585683677781096668.post-59758617147924126582011-10-07T10:31:19.593-07:002011-10-07T10:31:19.593-07:00So sad when our kids have to be exposed to the ...So sad when our kids have to be exposed to the 'adult' world.
