Jeliz, I agree with Andria. The DA letter for me was a hardcore move but it also had some hardcore fallout. My family relationships are pretty much non-exhistant at this point. My dad was alot cooler than my mom and sis but he passed away a while back. Since then I pretty much had to leave the rest of them behind. That was the consiquence I chose to live with but it's not for everyone. I like the idea of writing the letter as therapy. That sounds very healthy to me.
