How are you and Son doing, Defiant? If you can spare a minute, let us know. I am wondering what path you and he decided upon. He seems to have so many gifts.
It is 4 months and one week since my son showed up at my door. I had lost track of the time until I looked back at this thread. He was gone from my home (except for a day or two at a time) for over 4 years.
We have since bought a fixer upper house for him to live in, and he is helping my significant other remodel it. He is back and forth to my house.
He is clearly changing for the better but the relationship is still difficult and challenging for me. While having him close satisfies something deep inside of me, I am challenged to the core by some of his behaviors and choices. When this happens, I do not do well.
I do hope you check in and I do hope you and your family are doing well.
