What was the toughest decision you ever had to make?

The hardest decision i had to make was nearly three years ago, at age 17. I had to decide whether to leave my home. I was living in a neglectful, abuseful home, but my whole life was there, and my best friends. I had the option to move in with a friend in California, and leave it all behind. I did it, and there has been some bad times, I only get to see the people i love once every two years or so, but I am glad I got out of that environment. It made me stronger as a person.

My toughest decision was where to kill my husband,have him put in jail or just divorce him after I found out what he had being doing to my daughter,I am not in jail so I didn't kill him, I couldn't put her through going to court so I divorced him and made it plain to him never to come around ever.He didn't.I hope I made the right decision.Today she is a happily married and is a wonderful mother of my grandson.

Life is full of tough decisions. I actually think that my toughest decisions lie ahead of me, and that's what I'm fearful of. I predict my marriage, my children and my career will all lead to some tough decision making in the future. I guess I shouldn't have been such a coward for the first part of my life.

Great question, Razor. The first thing that comes to my mind was the decision about having to put my dog down a couple of years ago. She was 12 years old and had recently taken a turn for the worse. After a month of seeing her in pain, I realized that she wasn't getting any better, and was just suffering more and more. Although I remained very logical about the situation and knew that putting her down was the best choice, it was still a very difficult decision. Part of me wanted to believe that she'd get better on her own if I gave her the chance. Today I don't regret the decision at all, but at the time it was an extremely hard! Took me about a week to actually follow through and make the appointment. Another very difficult decision for me was when I was 16 years old and had to decide between staying in a public high school or going to boarding school. The boarding school was a far better school and offered a lot more, but I couldn't decide if living away from home and leaving all of my friends was worth it. My mother had given me complete freedom over the choice and I wrestled with it until the last possible minute. I ended up choosing to go to boarding school, which was definitely the best decision to make!! :)
