mom's guilt

it's natural, i know....but i feel like if i don't always say yes, i'm a "mean mom." ok, no...that sounds stupid. i know that you canNOT always say yes... i mean, sometimes ya just gotta hold your ground and that's the only way to make an impression concerning responsibility and the old "oh well, guess i just have to do something i don't wanna and my mom coulda done it, after all." he forgot his SAT admission ticket and wanted me to bring it to him. he had time to get it and all we did was argue on the phone. i feel horrible even though i know i did the right thing and i will not even know if he figured out another solution until at least 1:30 this afternoon! and then, there's the idea that an argument might very well ensue and so i have that hanging over my head, as well. i just sit here being all stressed out and anxious...wow, this is nuts! and this kid is so awesome and thoughtful and i love him and yet i still know i did the right thing. arrrrrgh!!!!!!!!!!
