[QUOTE="Pinkfreud, post: 683515, member: 18206"] Thank you for your responses. :) Forgive me if my answers bounce around lol. SWOT, Insane...I do agree. He has to own his decisions. I have struggled with feeling like a bad mother if I didn't "help" him...but reading this forum..all of your stories...has helped ease the guilt. My son wasn't really "bullied", he got into tifts with certain classmates, but I chalked this up to my son just being obstinate/ bossy in his interactions. Leaf and NLJ, yes I do feel like he has to "find his niche". He seems much more settled this time around. NLJ, I think yours is the very first story I read when I found this sanctuary. I connected with you. Your son sounds so much like mine. And I, too, like my son a lot. He is so INTERESTING. He is also right in a lot of his ideals...the corruption of the world etc. I used to push him that he just needed to "accept the things he couldn't change"..He seems unable. Someone on here posted an article about radical acceptance. I sent him the link. Don't know if he read it. Now I feel like I am in a place of acceptance. His way isn't my way..and that is ok.
