The T model

Maggie T faced down a whole host of battles and treacherous women to get to where she wanted. Should I allow one little Turk get me down? No no no. Maggie didn't give up because she knew what she wanted.

When defending one's child

What do you do when you are under attack? As a mother you try your best for your child, and it's a really nasty business sometimes when you encounter people who lash out just because of their own fear. In this case, pray to God, to grant the grace to behave in a way that will not make Him ashamed. Reach out in love, and trust that God will show them there is nothing to be afraid of.
