[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 632172, member: 17461"] I loved reading that he called you almost immediately after winning the bike. That is so sweet a thing, to be loved like that. :0) I wholeheartedly agree that, as COM mentioned too, these good things happening now for both of you have to do with the hard work you have done to detach from the old patterns with this son of yours. We went through something recently involving one of our grands. I stuck to healthy detachment theory instead of rescuing, and over time, every aspect of the initial situation is resolving beautifully. I am happy for you. Once we have proof that detachment works better than our usual rescuing behaviors, it becomes easier not to rescue. After everything we've all been through, even that little piece of certainty about how to respond to our difficult child kids feels like generous blessing. Cedar [/QUOTE]
