[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 550087"] It is so hard with these kids.... with borderline issues, who threaten suicide etc. That suicide threat is the ultimate manipulation of a parent i think. I am at that point I think (we shall see if i stay here) where really there is absolutely nothing I can do, it is time for him to save himself. I can provide some emotional support (if he asks for it which currently he is not) but nothing more. Kathy I think you and I are in very similar situations. I don't think there is anything you can do but let her go to Peter Pan, let her learn the hard way that it wont work and find whatever way you can to go on with your life. None of us signed up for this kind of journey when we decided to become parents that is for sure. TL [/QUOTE]
