[QUOTE="Steely, post: 426184, member: 3301"] From the age of 14-16 I felt that way about Matt. I mean I would have the same fantasies as you describe. It was such a gross, somewhat claustrophobic feeling (not sure why claustrophobic) but I hated every second of it, and at times him. We fought like crazy I was an F- parent in my opinion. Then the day came that he was so out of control he had to go to the Residential Treatment Center (RTC). The minute he left I felt every motherly feeling come back. I think it is hard in your situation because with wm you have really not had much time, if any to bond. So that leaves that relationship void of any depth to really tap into. And with kt you are bonded, but done with raising her. Done. If you were an animal you would kick her to the curb and not look back. Totally get it. But as humans we have to do all of these things to get them ready to "fly" - yet with difficult children they only want to sink. It is a hard, brutal, thing to watch - which makes one only get hard and cold inside. Totally understand.................hugs (even if you don't want them:)) [/QUOTE]
