hello! I am the mother of a beautiful 14 month old... recently split from my partner 3 months ago. I am having great difficulty letting go of my anger and grudges and disappointments with my ex. He says he wants to help me and participate in the upbringing but we are not getting anything from him but hot air. How do I let go so I can go on graciously without shooting venom at him constantly???

Re: how to handle a recent seperation...
Sat, February 24, 2007 - 9:56 AMi left my significant other when i was six months pregnant ... the best way to look at it is if you hang onto the anger, you will pass the bitterness onto your beautiful child ... i left so my child would not become a victim (like me) or an abuser. Truth is, you will have to pass through the 'stage' of anger ... it's necessary ... in order to heal. Justified anger must be felt and given it's time ... then let go. The key is time and your awareness to know when it's time to let go. good luck -
