[QUOTE="bran155, post: 181576"] Hello and welcome. You are not alone, there are quite a few of us that are not afraid to admit that loving our difficult child's is hard to do. I feel exactly like you do. My daughter will be coming home from the hospital on Friday after a 6 week stay and I am terrified!!! I just don't want to deal with this anymore. I am tired and yearn for a peaceful life. In the beginning I was ashamed and felt horribly guilty for dreading life with my wonderful difficult child. Years later, I have let some (not all) of the guilt and shame go. I am careful of who I will admit my true feelings to as not everyone will understand. I can assure you that everyone here gets it. No need to be shy on this website as we all live very similar lives. We, as parents love our children, liking them all of the time is a totally different story. Hang in there and glad you came out of the shadows. God bless. :) [/QUOTE]
