[QUOTE="Suz, post: 99009, member: 29"] I'm sorry you feel that way. I know these are painful times for you but one of these days I wish for you the blessing of distance. Distance will show you that Scott wouldn't be as successful as he is if he hadn't had you. Distance will show you that his inability to stay connected is a reflection on HIM, not you...and not on your self-described modest home. Distance will show you that you DID make a difference in his life... ...and hopefully DISTANCE will allow your heart to accept that that is enough...that you don't need further acknowledgment or reciprocation to feel good about him or to feel good that you were his parent. During the worst of our times with Rob I had to console myself with the above thoughts. It helped. I hope for peace for your troubled mind and heart so that you can "accept things you cannot change and the wisdom to know the difference." You're a good Mom. Please don't let one child dissuade you from believing your many other successes. Suz [/QUOTE]
