[QUOTE="FlowerGarden, post: 278784, member: 3068"] My difficult child hates us and blames us for everything. He will also use the "you are the ones who wanted me to be born. You created the problem. It's all your fault"! Fortunately for us, residential did help our son quite a bit. There's still many issues but he has become more independent and backs down and does the right thing more often. We are keeping our fingers crossed that he will graduate high school in less than 3 weeks. He's still on probation so we have them to back us up if we ever need some help. Upon the advice from residential, probation is requiring him to attend an adult intensive outpatient program for substance abuse, since in the past he had stopped his bipolar medications and started self medicating with drugs and alcohol. I understand the PTSD. His therapist during his last hospitalization told me I was suffering from it. I had to learn to keep my mouth shut and let him think for himself and suffer the consequences. I offer advice once and let him make his decisions. He is handling the outside world fairly well. He gives us a hassle but I now know how to try once to reason and walk away if it continues. In the past you helped me through my rough patch with difficult child and facing residential. I appreciate all the comfort and info you provided. I wish you and difficult child well. [/QUOTE]
