[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 761616, member: 19832"] It's smart to share your concerns and frustrations here with those of us that struggle with our difficult children. I know it helps me keep my boundaries better when I say things out loud or on paper. Our difficult children know how to make it seem that they are asking for help for a perfectly reasonable thing right now, but they don't want to acknowledge all the poor choices that have led them to this point. I keep hoping my DS and daughter change for the better, but I am finally at at point where I'm ready to say uncle. There's always a chance, but for now I'm trying to accept the reality of their bad behavior and choices are who they are until they decide to change. I'm done with denial and am working really hard on keeping my boundaries. Hands off, heart on. Two steps forward and one step back, but I'll get there and so will you. [/QUOTE]
