[QUOTE="CareTooMuch, post: 742663, member: 22347"] Although that is great to aspire to, real life doesn't always work like that. Older ds absolutely, rose to any and all expectations, younger ds, not so much. If I've learned anything from being on this forum, high expectations don't always equal growth in our CD kids. Maybe one day, maybe not. We can only decide how much to give, and how much we can take. Younger ds is not able to follow through even though he is an incredibly intelligent person. I think you need to make a choice of what YOU can actually deal with. Right now I have little say because I don't want him homeless at such a young age. I don't know what the future me will decide.
