[QUOTE="Fran, post: 478252, member: 3"] My personal feeling is that I do not want to ever walk away from a situation with my child and they follow through with a suicide or even an attempt. I don't believe I could forgive myself regardless of whether it was my fault or not. How do you know what is normal difficult child drama and what isn't? Kathy has undergone extensive emotional blackmail and torture with her difficult child. How to disentangle when difficult child keeps pulling her back in with things like today. Her veiled threat that there is a guy who will come in and rob them?!!!!!!!! How does one live with that sort of mental torture and constant chronic threats. How long does a parent keep trying to help difficult child find their way. I don't think anyone ever completely quits on their child even if they stay disengaged. You always are watching and waiting for an opportunity for your difficult child to do the right thing. Kathy, I don't have any experience with the legal system so this may be naive but maybe let her get arrested? She seems to have a strong sense of entitlement in addition to her immaturity,drama then add addiction on top; it's a time bomb. I know what you mean about wanting someone to hash things through. Sort of a life coach for dealing with a difficult child. It would have to be someone who actually knows and understands the mind of a difficult child. I know you must be angry at her forcing her issues by the suicide attempt but it must have scared the **** out of you. [/QUOTE]
