[QUOTE="Blindsided, post: 749635, member: 23811"] Your daughter is very wise, indeed. May son has said similar things to me about my 40 y/o alcoholic daughter who lives on the streets of Vegas. She was once a beautiful woman who was well cared for by wealthy men. I begged her to see the opportunities to get an education so she would never be dependent on others. It was her choices that have gotten her to where she is today. My son, her brother, is also at the point your daughter is. I look and listen to his wise advice, but deep inside, even though I know he is right, I also feel he sees things from a different perspective as a sibling. Then I realize, he needs me, he wants to see me healthy, and he deserves that! It is a roller coaster I take everyday, and I also pray to let go and Let God. Then I second guess that. The truth is, just like my daughter, I am responsible for my choices. If I choose to go on living out what little time my husband and I have left (69/72) in a way that brings joy to those who truly care about me, that's when I do best. And guess what? The outcome for my daughter's choices are going to be the same regardless of the journey I choose to take. [/QUOTE]
