[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 619183, member: 17269"] I like the idea of spending time with your daughter...if your family is like so many of ours, difficult child has sucked up more than his allotment of air. She might really like (and you both might benefit) from some mom-daughter time, focused on her and on you...try not to talk about difficult child. You may already be doing this..and if you are, that is great. Regarding sweet little boys (that may have been me, since I both say and think that a lot, although I suspect others do too).. for me, there is the memory of the sweet boy. And then there is the young man infront of me whom I would no way, no how, spend any time with whatsoever, if he were not my son. I don't let people who can't be trusted and who never keep their word into my life...so why am I letting him have such a large chunk of it? That thought helps me sometimes when I want to go too far.
