[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 282175, member: 1514"] I dont know if you would call all my kids complete success stories. I consider my ADHD son a success story. No he isnt a multi-millionaire who graduated from Harvard then went on to get his MBA from Princeton but he is quite happy and successful in what he has chosen as his career path. He graduated HS then went directly into the Marine Corps where he became a Military Policeman. He served his time there and got his training so that when came out he could get a job in the civilian world with a sheriff's department. He has happily been there for 2 years now as an Animal Control Officer and it is a perfect fit for his personality. He loves his job and his supervisors love him. He is married, has one child with another on the way. He also owns his own house. He will be 25 in less than a month. Now our youngest son has taken a harder path. He didnt graduate HS and he has been in trouble with the law. He has spent some time in jail and is now on probation. He also has a daughter. It appears he is trying to turn his life around now. He finally has moved out and has his own place and lives with his girlfriend of two years. We are hopeful that things are on the upswing for him. Only time will tell. He is a very good father and his daughter adores him. [/QUOTE]
