Standing Up

I'm not much for confrontations. I'm a lover, not a fighter. But when it comes to my kids, I'll do it. I called my friend and asked her if she'd mention what we'd talked about to another person. She had.....she explained the whole story. They'd ended up at the same fast food place after the game. The other person expressed concern for the oldest, her friends had been worried about her. One thing led to another and what I'd told my friend was brought up. As soon as it came out of her mouth, she regretted it. She'd forgotten that in the oldest's group of friends was this lady's daughter. Unfortunately, this lady confronted not only that daughter, but her younger one too....and named names. I'm not sure how my youngest daughter was brought into it, she had nothing to do with my original conversation. I think it has already blown over. From what I understand, this lady is going to have bigger issues to deal with soon anyway. She'll soon forget anything my daughter may or may not have done. I will, in the furture, be very careful as to what I tell people and who I tell it to! I just know that as hard as it was for me to confront my friend, I am glad I did. I understand how everything happened and I forgive her!
