[QUOTE="peg2, post: 605704, member: 2133"] Mr.Mike, my heart goes out to you. I have a now 23 year old, has been out of my home for 3 1/2 yrs. had to get a restraining order. He is homeless and I did all I could do. He is in the town next door to me and not sure who he might be living with. My son was out of my home for most of his teenage years, in group homes/residential,etc. because I could his behavior. I too, wonder why some people have wonderful children who are doing so well, but realize this is what I have been dealt with by God and I know I did the best I could. I have been seeing a therapist for over 3 yrs. and although it helps, I am depressed and can't seem to move forward enough, although I am trying. I am devastated by my situation and wish things were different, but they aren't. My oldest son asked what would happen to him, will he be bum on the street someday; I said I don't know, but maybe. I thought mine hit rock bottom but apparently he hasn't. It might never happen and I hurt so bad every day. I muddle through for my husband(not difficult child's dad) and my 2 other boys, but it is devastating. You must be strong though, you can not live in fear and you don't deserve it. Somehow, these kids manage and all you can do is pray(if you do that sort of thing). Thinking of you and wishing you some sort of peace. [/QUOTE]
