[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 561916"] Sig, I totally get what you are saying!! If my difficult child was living at home I am sure I would not be able to detach or keep my cool!! And if he was close by I might not be able to either!! I needed to detach and find ways to move on with my own life for my own sanity. I also feel that I could lose my son altogether and so my goal is to keep the door open in our relationship, and it feels to me as if our relationship is rather precarious at best. So again I keep my cool for my own benefit. And the reality is that at this point my son IS on his own, is not at the moment dependent financially on us and so anything i do or say makes no difference except in his heart. TL [/QUOTE]
