I really appreciate your feedback.<br /><br />At the moment it's another thing I'm letting go of but I will be saying soemthing if it (or something along similar lines) is said again.E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04660326954591560370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867081262675426242.post-41376537472944048422010-10-06T16:41:25.043+11:002010-10-06T16:41:25.043+11:00It can be so very frustrating to feel that your co...It can be so very frustrating to feel that your concerns are being brushed off, especially when the concerns are about your child and you are expressing them to someone you consider a friend. In the same situation, I think I would ask how my child's issue is different from someone else's in a similar situation and see what answer they could come up with.Joaniehttp://raisinganarmy.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867081262675426242.post-86171769300071196702010-10-06T15:09:11.742+11:002010-10-06T15:09:11.742+11:00Ouch, I think that's a tough call to make abou...Ouch, I think that's a tough call to make about anyone who's having a little anxiety about anything. Hopefully she was just having a bad day, but next time you can feel more than justified {and ready} to tell her how it makes you feel.

My gut instinct says to leave it, but if you strike the attitude from her again and you feel vindicated that it's not a 'once-off-having-a-bad-day' kinda thing, then raise it straight away.<br />Whatever you decide to do, you'll probably wish you'd done something else, there's no right or wrong.CATE https://www.blogger.com/profile/05302489120654085490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867081262675426242.post-41329835209838029632010-10-06T13:10:03.987+11:002010-10-06T13:10:03.987+11:00Ooooh, this is tricky.

My only suggestion is writing a letter, that way you can say exactly what you want (and maybe keep your emotions in check). Leave it for a day a two, re-read it and if it's still bothering you, send it to your friend.Jackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307287345268299072noreply@blogger.com
