[QUOTE="Suz, post: 193093, member: 29"] I think I've evolved (note: operative word here- "evolve") into a fairly detached parent. It doesn't mean I'm not [U]in[/U]volved emotionally, but I no longer take Rob's actions as a reflection on me. What a relief it was to get to that point- and it sure didn't happen overnight or without the support of members here (and sometimes having concepts beat on top of my head ;) ), Rob's therapists, our wraparound behavior specialist, and Rob's PO. And, to be honest, it also took my divorce because once divorced my ex FINALLY understood that Rob's actions had nothing to do with parenting but had everything to do with Rob's decisions. GG, I would heartily recommend therapy to help you work this out. One of Rob's old therapists really helped me through some tough times and tough decisions. And it was an hour I could spend indulging solely on MY feelings- what a luxury it was at the time. Hugs, Suz [/QUOTE]
