[QUOTE="Steely, post: 315404, member: 3301"] Yes, so true, there is definitely is a biological urge to file all mistakes perceived or true in our mother brain. I totally agree, and it serves no purpose, other than to make me feel horrible. Crazy thanks for your touching encouragement. Maya Angelou is one of my favorites. I think bottom line, the thing I am struggling with is that I do not feel like I can let go and have Matt's decisions be Matts because there are still too many "professionals" interfering in his life that I am responsible for. I am responsible for Matt being in this program. I chose it, and I am the one that is making him stay there. What if that is not the right decision????? What if the whole reason Matt is acting out is because he feels trapped and controlled by the massive amount of "help" he is getting - and he can't take it anymore. Honestly, frankly, that is how I would feel. I have been in his situation, so I know first hand how suffocated he [I]may[/I] feel. So I am simply not sure if I am projecting my feelings onto him - or indeed - he can't take the over involved, controlling, invasive, negative environment that I am making hims stay in. [/QUOTE]
