[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 649830, member: 18366"] Somehow the point of what I was saying about GOOD MEN and the one's who take care of bio-dads responsibilities got off track. What I was really trying to say, how lucky we are to have these selfless men and at some point we have to let go of all our focus on our ADULT children and give more attention to our husband and our marriages. These "good men" give up a lot (yes they know what they are getting into - and don't mind) but we need to recognize them for all they have helped us endure, been there, held our hands, wiped our tears. Also a point I was trying to make is - because my husband took on my daughter - I won't allow her to do to him (or use us for "our" money) when, I couldn't say no to Difficult Child abuse (remember that includes financial) I could do it for him. In my mind I see him as an innocent party to how my child turned out and I while I can't always stand up to Difficult Child for myself, I am like a lion with it's cub when it comes Difficult Child to trying to take advantage of my husband. When you can't say no for yourself, do it for your husband! [/QUOTE]
