Oh, no! I never hoped to change anyone. I just ASSUMED that they would grow up on their own and I would be proud of them.
I figured when someone does something hurtful, thoughtless, stupid, or rude, that they would see how it affected me and they would LEARN from it and never do it again.
And when they didn't learn the first time, I was SURE they would learn the next.
Ask me how that went.
