Have you ever had a hard time admitting something just wasn't working?

About halfway through the last school year I just knew something had to change. It was hard for me, however, to admit what we were doing didn't work as well as it always had.

To be honest, there have been a lot of tears (mine!) over the past six months. I have felt defeated, frustrated, and that I was failing my children. It's hard to admit this, because I like to think of myself as in control and successful.
