In this era of "parenting plans" and "co-parenting", many parents are in the same boat as you. You are wise to be aware that you have no control over what happens when she's with her father. Continue to pray for her, you're doing the right thing and it will bring you peace in times of fear and worry. Have faith that she'll remember what you've taught and shown her. I hope this helps ease your heart a little. Dear G.O.G.,

Mon, 04 May 2009 16:42:25 +0000 http://www.ronedmondson.com/?p=2012#comment-1942 Ron, Your posts regarding parenting brings me to tears every time I read them. I am a mother who only wants the best for my children. The problem is that my oldest child is from my first marriage and we share custody. While I try to teach her about good, truth, responsibility, and God her father is all about doing the opposite. I am so affraid and worried that my child is going to choose the easy path and follow after her father instead of choosing the path of good. I know I can teach her the good things when she is with me every other week, but I have no controll over the rest. I pray that God will help me raise her, guide her and keep her under his protection.
