[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 567542, member: 3419"] Malika, I agree with-Janet, and want to reiterate that you are not "giving up." Your subject heading scared me, but when I read the note, I realized you were actually doing something healthy. He is his own person, and there is a grieving process we all go through when we realize that our kids are not going to be the children we thought they were ... but they are still our children and we still owe them our best parenting skills, which include safety, food, clothing and shelter. If we can afford it, special education, psychological counseling and medicine is right up there, too. You are not giving up. You are learning. :) I love the story of how he woke you up and offered your dressing gown! [/QUOTE]
