[QUOTE="Coookie, post: 133004, member: 1587"] "I can't shield or defend or try to change him" Good for me to remember too. :( It is a process to get there though isn't it! :( Ponygirl, sending you hugs and I have much admiration for where you are. I know the worry sometimes crops up and heartache may be underlying but you are taking care of yourself. That is what is important now. I was thinking the other day, well I have thought about it a lot really, how our roles as mom's change when they become "legally" an adult. Most of us know that emotionally and mentally they are not but that doesn't matter anymore. We really have no choice but to step back and watch.... and pray. :( Sending more gentle hugs. [/QUOTE]
