[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 318952, member: 1514"] I dont know how to calm down...lol. Got no idea how I did it when the kids were young either. That time seems like a black hole. That being said, my youngest (the real difficult child), was never really normal. We basically accepted it and tried not to look too far into his future. We hoped for the best. His teen years and very early 20's were awful. Now he seems to be turning the tide. I dont think he will ever have an easy life but it is his life and he is in charge of it. I used to think he would be either in prison for life or we would have to take care of him forever. Now I have more hope. I think he is going to make it. He doesnt have the life I thought he would have when I held him for the first time as a baby but none of my kids do. Somehow, I dont think that happens for most kids. The all grow up to be their own person. [/QUOTE]
