[QUOTE="katya02, post: 171469, member: 2884"] I understand how easy it is to second-guess decisions we made when trying to cope with our difficult children' behaviors and difficulties. I've done it a lot. But in the end I think that, rather than applying the lens of hindsight to details, we need to consider our motives. What were we trying to do? We were trying to do the best thing for our kids. We did it out of love. We did it in the hope that things would improve for them. We wanted the best possible outcome for them (and still do). As time goes by, therapies change and go in and out of fashion. medications improve, or change, or are dropped. But the unchanging thing is the love we had and have for our difficult children, and viewed through that lens we did not mess up. {{{hugs}}}, stands. Keep on keeping on! You are a good mom. No, a great mom! :) [/QUOTE]
