    We are all dragged kicking and screaming into change...

    As a parent, dishing out the tough-love is hard. We hate to see our children cry, we hate to say "no" even when we know we should. The alternative, unfortunately, is that sooner or later someone else has to do the job - in this case the court. Paris will survive - there's a silver lining for her in here somewhere, and I don't mean a new reality TV series. I'm thinking more in the "real-life reality" category. Best wishes to you Paris - sincerely.
