[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 471651, member: 1550"] I have a very definite line that has to be crossed before I quit, but I do quit. I had to quit with my son that we adpted from Hong Kong. These are my guidelines: If I have done EVERYTHING I can humanly do to help the situation and the other person does not respond in any way, I move on. I don't like to call it giving up. I call it moving on. At that particular point, I know that the situation is out of my hands and I refuse to waste my life being upset over something that I can not control. If Scott ever wants to be a member of the family, and act reasonable toward the rest of us, the door is always open, so I have not given up. However, chances are good that this will never happen. I have a life. I will live it to the fullest with those who do value me and I will enjoy myself: "Let go and let God". [/QUOTE]
