[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 124275, member: 77"] Coookie, It was heartwarming to read your update. It is quite amazing how far he has come in maturing, and you are very sensible and clever to enjoy it while it lasts, since one never knows . . . (excuse the pessimism). I think you are right in that sending him away and all the experiences he went through were very sobering experiences for him. It would seem to me that his appreciation for the good he has in his life with you and your husband is sincere. I would hope and pray that my difficult child will also have some enlightening moment or experience. He doesn't live at home, but comes by more or less every day, for a little bit of money, or for some food. He is still in the military officially, and living in an apartment that belongs to the military, but they truly do not get a salary, hardly even pocket money. But his mouth, his mouth, is so rude. I am going to take hope from your story, Coookie. I also truly think that it is a matter of maturity, and I hope your difficult child has reached that. It sounds as if he is doing really well. Great stuff! Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
