[QUOTE="newstart, post: 759641, member: 22416"] [I]My heart and love go out to you B&A. First I am so sorry for the death of your daughter. I too am a bereaved parent losing my son at age 13 back in 1995, I cut my wayward daughter way too much slack, some of it was because I was so grieved by my son's death that I kept bailing her out of trouble and putting up with her nonsense. She even told people that since her brother died she can get me to do whatever she wanted. She took full advantage of my broken heart. My son's spirit visited me once and told me that a death date is a death date and no one or nothing can slow it down or speed it up. I needed to hear those words because I was always afraid I was going to lose her. I decided that the way our relationship was, was like an alive death and I was not doing her any favors or letting her grow by bailing her out constantly. I completely unhooked from her for 3 months when she was 28 because I could not take her crap any longer. Doing this was about as hard as burying my son. It was hard but I did it and in the three months she made some major changes, one thing that I noticed after the three months was her belligerence towards me was about gone and she worked at getting her life in better order. I believe to this day had I not cut her off completely I would still be treated horribly. Life is not easy with her now for sure but way better than before. I pray you have the strength to show your son your strength and force him to grow up. I know how hard it is but it will be best for you and for him.[/I] [/QUOTE]
