[QUOTE="Tired out, post: 740477, member: 23103"] Don't second guess yourself. My son had the picture perfect childhood. His dad is the picture of a perfect dad and husband. Loves us all to the moon and back. sports, coached, everything for this boy. I was the June Cleaver stay at home mom, room parent etc. Family vacations the kids helped plan. Never let any of the kids off the hook when they were out of line, never did the "not my johnny, he wouldn't do that" And yet...here I am. with a 21 year old irresponsible, hurtful, thief for a son. I have gone over and over, What could we have done differently. The only thing would be to turn back the hands of time and only have the 1st 2 kids. But...the thought of missing his 1st 12 years, before he started to turn..that is sad.. and years 13-16 had more good than bad. 16-21 have been very trying. I am going with the "this too shall pass" I have never been a super religious person. I pray there is a higher power watching out for these people and trying to guide them and helping us to move forward. [/QUOTE]
