[QUOTE="defiantchild, post: 675681, member: 18543"] Hi Colleen, So sorry for what you are going through. Yes, it's a horrible feeling when you see your friend's children, your son's friends, everyone else figuring it out, but our Difficult Child's. Unless you've experienced this for yourself, there is really no way to understand how this can happen. I do often feel ashamed as well. And judged by others. I'm learning not to let that get to me anymore. I am learning to count my blessings each day and not fixate on our Difficult Child. But it's very hard sometimes. That's why I have come to the conclusion with the help of a wonderful new friend and the advice of the wonderful friends I've met on this site that I have no choice, really. It's not getting any better for him here. It's like we are just delaying the inevitable. Might as well get on with it. I feel your pain and I'm here for you for support. -defiantchild [/QUOTE]
