Maybe I identify a bit there Tisa; you know now that we are clean, feelings do actually get loud and clear and I believe that it is my responsibility to address those feelings.
 
I, as a parent of a girl child have agonized many times about my daughters well being.
I remember people tell me then to let go overprotectiveness, but I had a different perspective.
Single parent issues and the fact that my baby was just five when her mother "retired" from the marriage has been a sub-concious motivator in what do for Anjie.
Moreover, I pray to God everyday to keep my darling safe from harm. I guess that as she is only 13 now, the parent in me is still responsible for many things in her life.
 
Moreover, her incredible grandma has really given her the discipline of staying away for harmful peers and malefic classmates.

I believe this relates to the page on the Basic  Text where it says
"It's great to feel human again" 

Natural human feelings have alrways been difficult for me to sense and resolve, even the "good" ones. Therfore I had to seek guidance on what are appropriate levels of feelings.

Now, I know this is a projection but here it is anyway;
if I were you, Id ask Andrew seriously about pressing charges. The lads that did that need to know it was wrong !
