[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 589567, member: 13882"] Hi ILMS, That has happened to me a couple of times with my difficult child, when he was about 17, and I was used and made a fool of, and I'm sure he and his friends had a good laugh on me. I actually had his drug using/dealing friends over for a big dinner and sleepover, and I even drove them to and from the movies, where they smoked pot. Lord, I was a jacka**. We never see it coming, because we aren't like that ourselves. When we speak, we tell the truth, and so we often think our own children would be just like us. NOT! Don't let it get you down. I was so naive, and I was the adult. Payback is a mother, though, that's what I keep telling myself, anyway. It's time to detach, ILMS. Lots and lots of hugs to you. [/QUOTE]
