[QUOTE="youngfool, post: 688274, member: 20219"] Hi copa so sorry to hear about your son and the set backs I can certainly relate to your situation sounds a lot like what I went through and still am. I was wobbly at first about my reason for asking him to leave he asked what he did to deserve being kicked out. And my response was it's not just one thing it's every thing all piled up but even knowing that this was the right thing to do did not make it any eaiser I still feel that feeling of did I do the right thing after a month. I Don't think that part goes away till we see a permanent change. And we all know that may never come but we have hope and pray it will and for most of us I think it will come but being prepared for the worse is my way of dealing with it. I have not heard from him but my wife talks to him and he is ok I hope someday to be able to have a real relationship with him.any way you know you did the right thing doesn't make it any easier. the right thing in life is rarely easy. If it were the world would be so different. Please take solice in the fact that you are not only helping him in the long run but also helped keep your marriage and your health. I know how you feel but that is what makes us good people if we did not feel bad about a situation like ours then something would really be wrong with us the fact that we hurt worry loose sleep means we are caring people and the fact that we made hard decisions about our kids makes us good parents it's easy to continue the current cycle to break it and demand better takes character not all of us have be proud you have the courage to do the right thing keep us posted thinking of you [/QUOTE]
