[QUOTE="klmno, post: 348861, member: 3699"] He has returned as a easy child!! And I don't mean just saying what everyone wants to hear or just being very repsectful and humble. He's saying this place was good for him and he needed it and he realizes a lot of things now. I can see an enormous amount of maturity in him. For instance, I mentioned that sometime in the near future, I wanted him to clean the gutters but wanted to be there when he did it. Instead of getting defensive or saying he didn't need me there and he could do it alone, he said yeah, that was almost a 2 person job just to stayy safe - it was good to have someone around in case the other person fell. He came in the house, hugged me, and held back tears as he told me he loved me. I can see that we have to re-adjust to each other though- partly because we haven't been living together and partly because he's older and more mature now. by the way, the PO was great yesterday. He was not a jerk to either difficult child or me but did let difficult child know that he had to do what I said and that he was supporting my choices. I let difficult child know in front of PO that I was supporting the PO. PO promised difficult child that if he did what he was told for 6 mos, he would release him from parole that day. difficult child and I both had the biggest sigh! [/QUOTE]
