Honesty


This boy doesn't know it, but he's in the middle of a war. I love him so much it hurts. And I know that there's a unneccessary gulf between his mother and I. I've tried so hard to be amicable. But there's only so many things I can accept or tolerate. There's certain things I cannot condone. I used a lot of words to explain my position to the person in question, and they are taking the 'Head In The Sand' approach : the one method I have been explicitly clear will not work. Part of being an adult is facing up to, and taking full, responsibility. That includes taking the heat and accepting the consequences of your actions. You can't just run away and pretend it didn't happen.

And that is what someone is trying to do right now. And neither morality nor legality are on their side.
