Welcome Rome,
Sorry we could not have met in better circumstances! I was pulling my hair out (AGAIN! or STILL!) and this forum has helped me. Everyone here is willing to share anything that we all may (or just one) benefit from.
(((blessing to us all)))
ME - 59yo married young - marriage from hell - single parent 20 years - 12 years married wonderful man, he really helps because he is not emotionally attached to GFG and helps me think logically! It still hurts regardless how you see it!!
PC - gifted daughter - had teen problems - scared straight after brush with law - raising 2 PCs
GFG - gifted son - difficult from day 1 - to say he marches to a different drummer is a mild statement - does not (or refuses to) learn from his mistakes.
Welcome Rome. Waiting to hear your story and offer support.
Nancy
