[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 522614, member: 11791"] Kathy... My mom could have written your post, oh, about 30 years ago. Seriously. I was the "easy child" and then there was GFGbro1 and GFGbro2, but especially, GFGbro1 was going nowhere while I was graduating from college, getting a job, moving ahead. The hardest part was the contrast. If I had become a secretary or something (nothing against secretaries, by the way), the lack of "success" for GFGbro1 would not have been so blatant. But... 10 years on... GFGbro1 went back to school... and ended up with a masters degree. Life isn't over yet, you don't know what will become of your difficult child. And there is more than one way to define "success" - she may never be buying newer cars, but if she can get her life together she can still have a good life... But right now? you need {{hugs}} [/QUOTE]
