[QUOTE="lostmyson, post: 551114, member: 15208"] Good morning all. Read posts yesterday but couldn't reply as hubby was home and doesn't understand I can't keep everything bottled up inside. Thanks everyone for caring. LMS you spoke about genetics, well my son has the cards stacked against him on both sides of the family. I have a sister who is bipolar and an alcoholic. She is 41 and still calls my 81 year old dad in the middle of the night to referee her drunken fights with her live-in boyfriend. This has been going on for years. She has been arrested several times and is known as the town crazy lady.My Dad is a great guy and I don't want this scenario to be my son and I 20 years from now. My mother and I have never gotten along and she doesn't get along with most of the family. She has never been diagnosed but definitely has mental issues. One of the meanest people I have ever known. Once while researching trying to figure out my sister's problems, I came across a site about people with narcissistic personalities. This was my mother to a T. My sons bad behavior has taken the focus off of these problems which I don't see ever being resolved. I mentioned in an earlier post about my ex's alcoholism so there are problems on both sides. I myself have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), not bad and I have been able to function fairly well in society but never quite felt like I fit in anywhere. My present husband's family are like the Cleavers (remember Leave it to Beaver). I have been in this family 15 years and their kids just don't do bad things. Tomorrow is my sons court date and I would think they would let him out of jail after 10 days. I have mixed feelings. I miss him in a way but don't think he has had any big awakening about his actions. My thoughts are with all of you and your difficult children (not used to this lingo).
