[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 621895, member: 17269"] That is very profound, clear, and intense. It is the place I want to be. Compassion for difficult child, and for me. Protection and love for difficult child, and for me. If you can't say it, can't think of it, you can't aim for it. Thank you for seeing it in your own life, and for saying it, Recovering. I feel so sorry for your daughter. But I feel your strength rising, and I have the idea that maybe hers is too. As for the roommate...all I can say is he is either a complete jerk (and difficult child's tend to surround themselves with those people) or he has totally had it with difficult child's behavior (and difficult child's have that effect on people). I would say difficult child's are at the receiving end of that kind of treatment more than most...usually they don't learn from it (I see...if I treat people THIS way then they get angry and treat me THAT way....I better not do THIS anymore...) but maybe they do. Maybe your difficult child will find her way towards kinder, more gentle people and then not wear them out. Maybe she can find compassion for herself, and compassion for you. I pray for that.
