[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 581151, member: 13542"] Awww, JKF, I'm sorry you've got a case of the guilts, it feels so bad, I know. I guess we all go back in time and wish we could have done it differently, particularly with our difficult child's.........I've done that too. I wish I could make these feelings go away for you, but I know sometimes we just have to walk through until we get to the other side. You always did your best, that's the important thing..........and you loved him, you gave him the best life you could at that time in your life, you were younger, it's hard to compare how we are now with how we were then............and now, when he is being in his gfgness to the max, you are supportive of him in every way you can, including knowing when to let to, which to me is an act of love too. All any of us can do is our best at any given time and as humans, we all make mistakes and learn from them, we all get better as we age and gain wisdom, we all have regrets and we all could have done better[I] if[/I] we had known how.....................it's part of being human. Hopefully, this will pass for you soon and when you wake up in the morning you'll be back in the present and able to leave the past behind. Hugs to you Mom, I hope your heartache goes away quickly........ [/QUOTE]
