[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 272444, member: 1514"] Susan...please. My kid was so much worse when he was here. He hurt me so bad. Not physically but he broke my heart in so many pieces. When I found out he stole that 1500 bucks from me, well that was my final straw. But even then he stayed here because I was still so enmeshed with him I couldnt see that he could make it on his own. We were also going through the whole court thing and we were tied to him with bonds and all that mess. Once I got fully fed up and he did something to really drive a wedge between us even more unforgivable than the money? Well I was really done and he had to go when he got out of jail. He found a place to live and he did his intensive probation and he is so much better. He is growing and maturing every day. I will never forget what he did but I have forgiven him. I dont live everyday wondering what he is going to do to me next. He is still a difficult child and he still does stupid things...such as the dog he just brought to my house! But overall, things are so much better. This can happen to you too but only if you really say no more. No more letting them walk all over you. No more saying...OK. No more saying NO but then giving in because they keep badgering you. I know what that feels like. Cory was so good at badgering me until I just got tired and gave in. Now he asks me one time and then takes No for an answer. It just amazes me and I wonder why it took me so long to grow a backbone! [/QUOTE]
