I was talking to my local parent carer support advocate today and told he something in confidence, how another parent had upset a friend of mine and possible stolen from them, and the first thing she did was phone that parent and tell them what I has said not only that she exaggerated it saying I had told all sorts of people she was a thief. Well of course this woman phoned my friend and went mad.
I know now that maybe I shouldn't have said anything but it was worrying me as my friend has been so good to this woman for a good few years and through her work has funded her to do lots of courses and training, and she goes and stabs her in the back.
This is not the first time this woman has made me look like an idiot. I am the chair of my local parent carers forum which she runs and both these women go to a local support group that I go to but now I don't feel like I can go to either again, I feel so betrayed.
