As a 52 year old woman with a daughter (and son) of my own, I can tell you I've seen this happen several times and always find it extraordinarily painful to watch. As mothers and friends we need to better understand WHY these women are choosing to be with individuals that don't have their best interest in mind. What is it about the bad boy that women are attracted to? Is it something that we aren't teaching are daughters? .. or is it something we aren't teaching our boys? I do believe that the young men need to pull up their boots and man up (AMEN to that one!) and I think women/girls need to not give themselves, or hook up, so quickly. I hope this young woman you mention is able to move forward and learn from her past. <br /><br />leslieLesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280782743483018226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861124098541076451.post-62447989814119823262012-08-23T17:56:34.780-04:002012-08-23T17:56:34.780-04:00In that regard, I'm one of the lucky ones.

It's a big hard knock but a fast learning curve. It can be tricky not to let it harden your heart.<br />I saw that photograph of the lovely man and his dog yesterday, immediately you just 'know' he's one of the good guys don't you? I found my own 'good guy' after years stumbling and learning there's no age limit!
