[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 650543, member: 18366"] What I am saying to you Lil, is at some point you may have to come to and understanding for your emotional and mental health of understanding [I]because[/I] of his DNA - he may be lacking [I]that desire to change as well. [/I]It is this saying: I can teach it to you but I can't do it for you. I so see/hear the hurt in you when we discuss these issues so I understand that you may not be ready to understand that what you want may not happen (for him to want to change). My daughter is years older at age 40. For you, I dearly hope he sees the light and is able to change because I see how much this is both hurting you and how hard you are fighting to save your son. I sincerely hope you get a happy outcome. I do know what is wrong with my child and I wouldn't wish it on anybody; but the pain of not knowing was worse than the final, knowing and then [I]acceptance[/I] of she is what she is, making for a better life for me. Knowing and accepting I can't change anybody is actually freeing. For me, it's back to detachment I guess. [/QUOTE]
