[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 681374, member: 19887"] Thank you so much for this post. I constantly play the " what if" game.... I don't know if I ever will be able to fully accept this isn't somehow my fault, but I'm trying. When friends make comments or look at me with sympathy it hurts because I always wonder what they really think. I know that's juvenile.... But it's true. I think knowing they feel sorry for us, and think my son is "bad" is what really hurts. He has an amazing soul and is so kind and empathetic. He was the kid everyone thought would be a leader, and successful. Instead he is sad, addicted and hopeless. How does this happen to "good parents" and "good kids" ???? I will never again judge other parents, no one knows the pain of this ..... [/QUOTE]
