[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 251651, member: 84"] Rhonda I knew you had a good head on your shoulders. :) You are handling this the best possible way. You're keeping the door open for difficult child, while not blinding yourself with illusions. I know that's not always so easy to do, and often can be a painful process. While in the forgiveness stage......I think you've also stumbled into the acceptance stage......which to me is harder. You're accepting your difficult child for who they are and are attempting to work with that for a change for the better. Acceptance is truely hard because we also have to accept that we have no power to fix it. That's huge for any parent, and the thing that punches us in the gut. Sounds like you've got a workable realistic plan in place. I'm praying hard difficult child is ready and willing to do the work involved in changing her life. She is one hellova lucky girl to have such a warrior Mom who loves her so much. Hugs [/QUOTE]
