[QUOTE="ChickPea, post: 750382, member: 24089"] I highlighted some of that for my own personal self to meditate on your words. This post makes me feel incredibly free, and incredibly sad. Probably anyone on this site can figure out the why behind that. I'm so happy for you that you found your peace. A person has to be a very negative vibe in someone's life to impose the kind of chaotic disturbance that unsettles everything with such a painful impact to those around them. I had glimpses of this freedom you speak of, but don't know the ongoing reality. Please don't feel badly about enjoying your life and feeling safe. Don't at all. The relationship that many of us have with our Difficult Child is toxic and often abusive. It's instinct to tolerate it (try to fix/control, etc.) because it is our child and we [B]remember[/B] them when they were helpless babies and struggling toddlers. We remember carrying them in our womb, or their "gotcha day" if adopted. But if it were a co-worker, they would have been kicked to the curb long, long ago. Loooooooong ago. BOOM. Enjoy your new home. Bless you, dear!! [/QUOTE]
