[QUOTE="standswithcourage, post: 117066, member: 3948"] I understand too! My daughter just got married. She is 21. She has dated the same guy for almost 6 years. She calls now to ask if I can check on her dogs, etc. She also shares things with me she never did - relationship things! Anyway, she is very boundary concious. She lets me know when I have crossed it. We went through a time when she was 16 - 19 that I thought we would never speak again. But now it is much better. I try not to bug her by just calling. So I do call some and just ask whats going on? He dog is expecting puppies any day! On the other hand, my difficult child ( son)sounds like yours. Mine is in jail. He is 24. I hate it so bad for him - but he did it. We tried everything we knew to help him - everything - it never worked. He is in jail for contributing to the deliquency of a minor. He has been there since Oct. 07. WE told him over and over - coming home was nevear good for him since he started using drugs. We couldnt put up with it. So now - who knows. Sometimes when he calls he puts me on a guilt trip but i try and detach from it. It is all too devastating! Glad you are here but sorry you had to come!!!! Does that make sense? [/QUOTE]
