[QUOTE="dashcat, post: 554740, member: 9175"] I am so sorry for your struggles - both in dealing with your status, your past and your son's current choices. It is horribly hard to watch our kids making choices that cause them (and those who love them) so much pain. Still, we are powerless to change their behavior. You did not cause your son's behavior by telling him about the virus. A different kid may have reacted differently and he might have behaved just as badly whether you told him our not. Please know that I say this gently, and with great undeerstanding, but our difficult children cannot learn from OUR mistakes. They can only learn from their own. It sounds like you've turned your experiences as a difficult child into creating a good and stable life for yourself and your family. That is to your credit. But we cannot stop our kids from becoming difficult children, we cannot stop them from making bad decisions ... we can't do anything but change our own reactions. Hang out here and keep posting and keep reading. You are not alone in your struggles. Dash [/QUOTE]
