[QUOTE="DDD, post: 29282, member: 35"] Have to add a note here. In this arena of the CD family we do not all agree on methods etc. Many of us, like you and your wife, make every effort to keep our difficult children in the safety of our home. Some difficult children are totally rude, verbally violent and some are actively stealing from the home or threatening to family members. In our house we have had two instances of verbal rudeness and no overt acts. In fact, it is an unusal day that we don't get a spontaneous hug, quick kiss on the head or an affectionate statement or two. on the other hand, we have a son who is an alcoholic and a pot smoker. We have a son who is not moving forward toward maturity. It is really important that we acknowledge the depth of the problem and attempt to distance ourselves by detaching as best we can. It's all so darn subjective but it is invaluable having the support of each other no matter what road we choose. Glad to have you aboard. DDD [/QUOTE]
