[QUOTE="UKMummy, post: 686747, member: 19939"] Thank you Nature. I'm very thankful to of found this site. You know with a Difficult Child comes a huge amount of guilt. A huge amount of judgement, from others but especially from ourselves. I raised my children on my own. DCs dad left the country when her was 5 and contact from then was minimal. He was always an angry, difficult child. But he was also loving, moral and very bright. I raised them as best I could. Did I make mistakes. Of course but now I can reflect back and they were just normal parent mistakes. I didn't abuse him, neglect him. I loved him. I gave him everything I could. I gave him more than my other children, time and material things, because I wanted him to be happy. My relationships with my 2 other children are great. I think they love me more because they see what effect their brothers behaviour has had on me. I'm thankful for them. My heart bleeds for the parents here that don't have other children to even out the balance. They can bring us so much joy. They can light up our lives. Or.... they can hurt us like no one else can. Anyway, what I wanted to say really is, this site had given me the permission to take back my life. It has given me permission to be happy even when my son is in a dark place. I wonder if the founders of this group and the long term members know what they have done? They are supporting parents all over the world and I am so so so thankful to you. You have made my life better. I feel calm when I am here and I'm learning from you wonderful people everyday. Thank you [/QUOTE]
