[QUOTE="Coookie, post: 124185, member: 1587"] Jo, Maybe if you tell H exactly what you wrote here it would better help him to understand? I didn't WANT difficult child to go either, in a perfect world I wanted a happy home with him moving on to become a responsible, working adult BUT the choices he was making and the subsequent fighting husband and I were doing pushed us to do what we did. husband and I found ourselves disagreeing about many things concerning difficult child such as husband wanting to handle it and my not seeing any change. :greedy: husband and I rarely fought and then it was "cold" wars but during that time it became very ugly...I didn't like it at all and neither did husband. The FED up part came very quickly as did the decision to buy the ticket but in retrospect it was the best thing. It gave husband and I time to heal, which we needed. It isn't turning your back on your difficult child, it is facing the fact (for me anyway) that I married that man because I loved him and no matter where or what difficult child does with his life my husband is my best friend and we need to protect that relationship. Holding good thoughts for you, your husband and your difficult child. More hugs [/QUOTE]
