Hi HT. Everyone here is wonderfully supportive, so feel free to offload or talk about something else to take your mind off it all x

controlfreaky2 · 27/04/2007 23:47

well there are your own feelings about him to think about and then there are theirs..... at their age as young adults they will presumably have their own relationships with him and will have to address this in their individual ways..... you will want to support them in that and can do that by being ready to listen to them......
