[QUOTE="hexemaus2, post: 392698, member: 4560"] Oh boy, do I understand. Our household is a completely different place with difficult child 1 out of the house. Undomesticated equines could not drag me back to my old life. lol. In fact, before I signed for difficult child 1 to get married at 17 & a half (six months after she ran away from home with my granddaughter) I was kind of terrified that she'd come back. In the beginning, I begged DFCS to help me get her to come home before she destroyed her life. Six months later, I was scared to death they'd remember I asked and try to force me to take her back. When my father in law found out what she was doing while out on her own and married, he made the comment that she NEEDED to be back home with her parent where she belonged. My response "Not no, but HE// NO! Over my dead, rotting body. I'll run away myself. No way. Ain't happening. Not in MY house she won't." lol. I told him I'd pack the boys up and move to an undisclosed location out of the country if they tried to make me take her back. I love my quiet, peaceful life. Whereas before I took every opportunity to NOT be home, now I find I seldom want to be anywhere else. (Good thing, since I do work from home. lol.) [/QUOTE]
