[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 608308, member: 1514"] Dont you hate looking back on those baby pictures? I do. I only have one picture of my difficult child graduating and that was from Head Start...lol. I cant help remembering him as a small child because he has two little girls who either look just like him or act just like him. Thankfully its not both of them...lol. Two difficult grands in my house would be just too much for me! One thing I did learn over the last few years as my difficult child has gone off on his own, though he is back now until he can get back on his feet, is that when a boy grows up and becomes an adult they simply dont do well at home. At least most of them. They get stuck between two worlds. The world of a grown man who can stand on his own feet and support himself and family...and then there is that stuck teenager in there if they are still at home. My youngest has always felt better about himself if he is supporting himself, even if that is only with disability and food stamps. Oh one thing I have seen in your posts is that your son is a piano player. Please make sure you keep that because at some time in his life when he is settled down he will want it badly. I also played piano and when my parents divorced they got rid of the piano. At that point I was in no condition to take it because I rented. Its hard to move a piano when you move in a car. [/QUOTE]
