[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 622843, member: 1550"] Suzir, it is one thing to project about what you might do if...and another to be living through it. You have no idea what you'd really do if your son spat at you at his age or hit you or got thrown in jail or became a drug addict. You can not guess what you would do. You simply do not know. I did not know. I did not think any of this would happen. Your son has other issues which I would have handled much differently than you did, but I did not bring it up because I don't believe this board is to try to undermine what we as warrior parents are doing for our adult children (or did for them when they were small). You and I don't know what one another would do, unless we walk in one another's shoes. I'm honestly glad what you do works for you and your beloved son. [/QUOTE]
