[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 669035, member: 17542"] Oh Lil, I am sorry. Right now, when you are in the thick of it, it may be no consolation at all to think of this, but here goes. Some kids (mine and yours) do every single thing the hardest possible way. They don't learn from their experience and they don't listen to anybody. They have to go through each step over and over again, each person in their lineup, until they reach the end of the list of people and places and things....and there is nobody but...themselves. And that is their rock bottom. You and I will never understand why it happens. It seems so ridiculous and unnecessary to us. But it is their path. For whatever reason. It's just their journey. You have come light years. You are hanging in there, loving your son and letting him live life on his terms, whatever that looks like. It's very hard to do, and there are periods of time when the grief and fear and plain old sadness is just profound. One day at a time. This too shall pass. I am praying he learns something here, and even if he doesn't recognize it today, it will come back to him later and it will be useful to him. Warm hugs on this Sunday. We finally have some sunshine and blue skies here after nearly 10 days of gray and rain. Hang in there, Lil. We're here for you. [/QUOTE]
