[QUOTE="Addictsmom, post: 626125, member: 17748"] I come and read here a lot, but don't post as much as I did at the beginning. My difficult child is 52 yo and all the posts I read from younger moms/dads could have been written by me when he was a teenager. What a horrible thing for parents to have to go through.....it's not how we imagined parenting our babies, is it? But reality is what it is. When I feel myself having a weak or painful moment, I think of what I've learned.....I didn't cause it and I can't cure it. I have the right to peace and happiness. My son is still drinking and in poor health because of his abuse of his body. All those healthy foods, vitamins and love I gave him when he was a little boy....you'd never know it by looking at him. Does it hurt? Of course, but there's not a thing I can do to change him. I can take care of myself and will not let him manipulate and use me. Hugs to all of you. [/QUOTE]
