[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 389635"] Yes to all you are saying. My son recently texted me that the counselor there said it was time for a family conference. YES. Plus my daughter has written her brother a letter that I am sure will stir some things up. So I am hoping that in the process of recovery that we will some how break through the wall that our son has put up between us. I know it may take time but I am hopeful.... and of course a lot of it is up to him. I do think he knows we love him but I think there are a whole lot of other feelings there too. I know his therapist here once told him or asked him if his anger at me was really anger at his birth mother? My son thought that might be true. So we shall see. I do believe that at least some of my sons issues are adoption issues. I know I am doing a lot better and feeling a lot better now that my son is in rehab....at least I know he is safe. I am nervous about what happens next but at least for now I can relax and follow his and the programs lead. It just feels good to be able to regroup, connect with my daughter and husband and to feel peace at home. [/QUOTE]
