[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 715163, member: 4152"] Rosenbergio...I think a turning point came for me many years ago when I had to ask my Higher Power to simply take this from me. Why? It was beyond my control. I was giving over 100% and this resulted in damage to my health and no improvement for our daughter, in particular. I think, probably when they turn 18 and absolutely positively when they turn 21, it is very important to find the inner strength to let go. When my children were willing to at the very least by respectful, obey the law and meet me half way, I would provide SOME minimal assistance. I've perused some of these stories (I will go back and read them all later) and I see there is much wisdom to found within them. Also, at times, I had to get therapy for myself because having a child like this (even if they are not so young anymore) is VERY taxing. Take extra good care of yourself. Mamato3... Take heart. There are definitely some success stories! [/QUOTE]
