[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 650780, member: 17269"] Cedar, I know what you mean by this. I felt uncomfortable about this all year last year...a lot of the posts were about detaching with love, total acceptance, loving our kids as is...and...I couldn't get there. I detached in...some degree of disgust. some degree of judgement. some degree of anger. I couldn't get past it, and I was ashamed of it. But it was part of the process. Today, at this moment, it is less, better. But who knows about tomorrow. Thank you for putting your finger on it. Alb, I know. That happened to me a while back..months or even a few years. I realized he isn't who I thought, or who he used to be, or who I used to know...any of those things. He is his actions. That is who we all are, right? Be careful of your thoughts for they become your words, be careful of your words for they become your actions, be careful of your actions for they become who you are...my son, all our difficult children, all of us...we are our actions. That is how we interface with the world, how we impact it, how we receive it. OUr sons are as they appear to be, as they show themselves now, not as we imagine. I am sorry this is happening to you. Hugs, Echo [/QUOTE]
