[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 735389, member: 1550"] New Leaf nothing is normal with these kids. I had so much joy from Goneboy as a child. I never dreamed he would just walk away and never come back. Yes, he had problems from six years in an orphanage but I thought he loved us. I had a few red flags that I didn't pay any attention to and I hadn't known he had proposed to his sister until recently. Princess never wanted to discuss it. When he disappeared I was a mess. I spent intil my 40s and beyond sad about my family of origin too and I can still be triggered by contact. My method of coping is my higher power plus the many blessings of my other loved ones .The second is huge. The fa t is you DO have functional, loving other children to help wash away the pain maybe? Remember It's not all negative. I try to think of something positive when my brain goes south. I find it helpful. We can't change our kids or their choices. Wish we could. But we CAN count our blessings! I heard of Gratitude Journals and have one I do t use it enough but it is there. Love to you....the big fat sunshiny love that you so deserve. [/QUOTE]
