I have 30 some years of experience with negative thinking, where has it gotten me emotionally. I don't always succeed, and sometimes according to my Positivity Gantt chart I have only partially succeeded :O) (seriously love that idea), but I try. <em><strong>Hee hee - Gantt chart...it is a cool concept hugh?

The therapist that my daughter and I see, has been working with me to help Ashlyn understand the subtle and not-so-subtle differences between assertive and aggressive. It really is hard to put into words, even though the counselor and I both understand it very well. Ashlyn, while a very caring and sympathetic character, is very straight-forward and sometimes lacks that inner voice that restrains you from not using the right amount of tact. Fortunately (?), it's usually me that gets the most of that tactlessness. And I've apparently said it enough to her that she'll say it with me when I start to remind her, "It not WHAT you say, but HOW you say it." Though, when she says it, it's laced with a bit of teenage sarcasm. LOL <em><strong>I was once told the teenage years are the "cat" years when your child changes from the adorable puppy to the more independent and opinionated critter.
