I have not had a relationship with my mother for over ten years and I'm sorry to think she will more likely meet the same demise as Dr. Laura's mother did. Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334056037821283598.post-37176526239661394812008-04-11T06:50:00.000-05:002008-04-11T06:50:00.000-05:00I am a married woman and come from a divorced home...I am a married woman and come from a divorced home, without a step parent, but I still struggle with seeking the attention of men, especially my new brothers-in-law. So, I know what she went through. I do pray to St. Margaret to help me to overcome this and become more and more reliant on God's love and attention and desirous only of my husband's attentions and affections. I have not fallen into the sin of adultery and have gotten better in that I am much more able to resist the temptations to lust and fantasize about my new brothers-in-law and about one in particular.
