[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 657814, member: 17542"] Pg I am just getting caught up on this thread. I so understand. Difficult Child has been improving steadily for about a year now but it is not all roses and perfect. I still have to work hard on myself to have no expectations and let him live his own life without my interference and enabling. The work continues even after things get much better. This work on ourselves will continue for the rest of our lives. It will never be a "happy ending." That isn't life. Life is messy and chaotic and back and forth and people make mistakes and have problems and relapse. We have to settle in and see clearly. I know we all thought that once they started walking in a new direction that everything would be hunky dory. Not. I know having a small child must be very challenging in many respects and you are ready to "get back" to your life and for her to take over. That is understandable. Hang in there. It's still tough stuff. [/QUOTE]
