[QUOTE="Nature, post: 740285, member: 19011"] Thank you SWOT. It took me a long time to accept my child was different and it was only in retrospect did I learn to not project my sense of success based on what he was doing. Bravo back to your awesome son! Drew ,your daughter is still young and must find her place in the world. It's true that there is always the danger that her isolation may be made worse the longer she chooses to do that. Yet, it may be the very thing she needs at the moment to bring her comfort. It's hard to say what is the right answer. As frustrating as it is your daughter must come to the realization (and you and your wife) that it's her walk, her path and her life. I wish we had a crystal ball to be able to foresee the future as I know you are constantly questioning what is the right thing to do. Your daughter may have the mindset of a younger person and at this time in her life the stress of adult decisions may be too much for her. I think as parents there are times we grieve that our children are different than others - we want so much for the best of them. I will be thinking of your family. [/QUOTE]
