[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 621222, member: 1550"] BITS, one of our biggest problems is we still see them as boys. They are young men. Immature young men, but young men. I mean, some people are fifty and still act a lot like children, but they aren't. I've finally gotten to the point where my two boys are men in my head and I try hard to remember that. Of course, they are in their 30's. Also, at least in my own mind, which may be distorted thinking, I think it's worse than my two wayward sons are this way WITHOUT using drugs or at least being addicts (now with 36, he may be a functional alcoholic. I can't know).But I would rather they both be mean because they are under the influence of drugs or sick with addiction rather than knowing they are just this way, period, probably because they have personality disorders. Maybe texting him isn't such a good idea. Seems like he isn't going to respond in a way that lends itself to communication. It is a way to hurt you. I am really sorry about this. They seem to love to make us sad and/or worried. Try to walk with serenity and peace today and keep up the painting!!! [/QUOTE]
