[QUOTE="DDD, post: 111478, member: 35"] David, your family dynamics sound complex. No wonder you have issues trusting others to interact with your son. I'm glad that you realize my post was not intended to be negative. This time alone is the perfect time for you to reach out for additional help sorting out all the confusing issues of the past and personal support for yourself as you face the future. It surely sounds as though you have assertively advocated for help for your son. As an experienced volunteer advocate as well as a parent/grandparent who has had to advocate since the mid 60's for a child with issues and due to circumstances continues to have to actively advocate...I know it is draining. It is very easy to lose your sense of self in the intensity of fighting for your childs future. Your response illustrates exactly the difference between "toxic" relatives and irritating, disappointing or pain in the fanny relatives. [img]:rolleyes:[/img] There is no question about eliminating toxic. Over time, however, I believe it is best to attempt to put in place some type of support system in case "the turnip" gets you.
