[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 124523, member: 3208"] Hi Jo, just sending hugs and support--I so strongly believe you are doing the right thing and I know how hard it is--kudos to you for remaining strong! I felt much the way you do when I kicked difficult child 1 out--I just was "there"--I couldn't take it anymore-- didn't cry, I didn't care, I was mostly relieved and even euphoric at times. I hope your husband can come to see that "making her see" and helping her are really not working and even detrimental at this point. She has to figure this out by herself and she may just surprise you at some point and begin making some better decisions. She sounds so much like my difficult child--she will have to make the wrong choices to learn what the right ones are. And you are right--you can't figure out how to deal with all the potential problems, you will just have to wait and see and deal with them when and if they occur. You are doing great! Jane [/QUOTE]
