[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 748353, member: 18958"] I agree with Busy, the part about sending uplifting pictures or memes, that neither invite nor ask for responses. That's where we run into trouble, or I do. Pushing for specific outcomes, or opening to his complaints, desires to "share" his plight and feelings with me. Tanya on this site is the champion of uplifting, yet neutral visual messages. I think she finds them online. This is the tough spot all of us are in: being a mother, in all of its aspects, brings us misery. Worry. Helplessness. FOG: Fear, obligation, guilt. That's the issue at hand. Not anything to do with your son. Over him, and his situation, as am I, you are helpless. [/QUOTE]
