[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 594137, member: 3305"] TL, Please don't "own" your difficult child's "abandonment issues" as I truly believe it is just a source of pain for difficult child to use over. What I mean is...ANY REASON will do. It's so hard to keep from feeling sorry for our difficult child's sometimes...but I believe it is to their detriment if we feed that "monster". If we allow them to have a Vicitim Mentality we do them no good. We have to talk to them in such a way that show's them we believe they are strong enough, capable enough, to get back on track...regardless of the odd's. On the other hand...it is not up to us, we should never feel like their sobriety hinges on us. TL...I'm with you in spirit right now. I "know" something is going to happen as my young difficult child is at that Fork in the Road too at this moment. Hopes and prayers that our difficult child's will think, submit to the rules, and do The Next Right Thing. Hugs and love, LMS [/QUOTE]
