[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 102910, member: 84"] Kitty ((((hugs)))) As parents we can only do our best with the tools and knowledge we have at the time. You did that. We are human and we all make mistakes. I know there are many things I go back and do differently if I had a time machine. But that doesn't change the fact that we did the best we could. This statement worries me because it sounds like your taking on the guilt of difficult child's behavior. You have no control over the decisions difficult child makes as an adult. You gave him a good foundation. It's up to him now to use it or not. Taking on the guilt that belongs to difficult child isn't beneficial to either of you. Talking with a counselor might be a good way for you to work through these feelings. I'm so sorry your hurting. Hugs [/QUOTE]
