[QUOTE="JayPee, post: 752554, member: 23405"] Eyvette I’m sorry for all your going through. The disappointment, hurt and grief of not being able to experience a reciprocating and loving relationship with our adult children is sometimes more than our hearts can bear. For me it’s remembering when they were younger and ran up to me with wide eyed love and wrapped their arms around me. I think for me that’s something I know I will never have again and haven’t for a very long time. Right now all the loving is by me. I have two homeless sons who are 30 and 26. The younger one just got a job at a pizza place but I feel this won’t last long. Like usual. My last conversation with him he was starting to take issue with some “injustices” taking place. The typical stuff like “they’re holding a week pay back”. Says he’s working for free etc. no sense in trying to tell him that’s how most employers do it. You don’t normally get paid for the week you’re working in. All he keeps saying in yeah. I’m working for free. Doesn’t listen to anything I say. Heartbreaking when mental illness anger and addiction swallow them up. Stay close to God if you can. Take care of yourself. I will keep you in my prayers. [/QUOTE]
