[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 678675, member: 19522"] Hi Drowning, welcome back, it has been almost a month since your last post. I am sorry things are the same ole same ole. You sound strong and determined to stay afloat, and have a well thought out plan. This is smart. If your son is like my two, anything I say, write or do will be used against me in their lopsided court of law(lessness). Pleading the fifth, is usually the best way to go. No sense giving any ammo. This is where it can get difficult, when our dear husbands are not on the same page. I think you have come up with a workable solution, to have your husband meet son on neutral ground. I hope all works out well, and you are able to stay the course. Bless your hearts, adopting at 16. I am sorry things turned out this way for you and your son. There is always hope for change, you are doing the best thing by putting your foot down and giving him his wings. Hopefully, he will use them to fly in the right direction. You are doing a good job, you got your head above water, and you are stopping yourself from sinking with the chaos and drama of it. These four weeks that you have before going home to all of this will be a good time to build up your toolbox. Keep posting, share your thoughts and knowledge with others. It really helps me to do this. As I read others stories and post, I am reaffirming in my mind, the course that I am on. Thank you for sharing, Drowning. You do not seem to be drowning at all, I think you are doing rather well. Keep swimming against that current! Hugs for your hurting heart. leafy [/QUOTE]
