Moss, my family is not "into" online support, so I just share with them the things I learn on here and think pertain best to them and leave the rest for me. Either way, it seems to be working..buddy system, you know.

Hey All,
Well, she is still sticking to it and is doing pretty good with the roller coaster of emotions. We have been talking a lot and she has a few friends who have quit so she has some people she can lean on when needed. She doesn't seem too excited about the online support group so I haven't pushed at all. I wish there was a magic parent wand we could wave over our kids for this one. Unfortunately this is a task that we can't push on them. We all know we can only be an example and hope the best for them.
Thank you all for your words of Congrats and support.
Islandgirl.....That is a brave undertaking ( family quit )and a great idea at the same time. I hope you all the best.
Moss

Moss, we made ours a family affair. My husband, daughter and I all quit on the same day. It is so much easier on all of us and we can understand one another's moods so much better. Congrats to both of you!

Oh Moss I am so very happy for you! What a wonderful feeling that must be, and it is all due to you! It's like they say...practice what you preach and your daugther saw that you could do it and knew that she could do the same. Make sure you are supportive and helpful and let her know that we are all here for her too whether she chooses to join the site or not. She will be in my thoughts and I wish you both well. What a great pair of quitters!!!!!
