[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 304277, member: 1550"] You didn't fail. You have a child who is wired differently so he is harder to raise. Some kids seem to join the world and it all comes easy and some seem to struggle and make US struggle, but you tried. That makes you a good parent. I'd also like to say that I think your daughter's job is neat!!! My own oldest daughter went for hairdressing then decided her passion is culinary arts. She is a great pastry cook and is back in school. Neither job is NeuroSurgeon pay, but her forte is her creativity and she loves what she is doing...she cooks all the time, even makes wedding cakes on the side for people. (She also still does hair for people and makes a buck from home and is very talented at that too). Not every child is wired to be a college graduate. I could totally imagine my daughter doing tatoos too...lol. It wouldn't have bothered me. Just wanted to give you a hand of support, and another perspective on your oldest :happy:. Your younger daughter's story is over yet, but YOU have done a great job so far. Now it's up to her [/QUOTE]
