[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 644951, member: 17461"] I think all those things are good things, but here is the thing: What does it do to us to interact with anyone, let alone our own grown child, on that level? Who are we teaching the grown child that he or she is? And...what kind of people are we allowing the situation to turn us into, if we follow those guidelines? We are their parents. What we say, how we see them, that all matters. That is why this is so impossibly hard. husband and I paid to move them out on their own. We had them back, mostly by hook or crook on their parts, and refuse, and continue to refuse (and that is hard enough), to have them back to live with us, anymore. Everything about having difficult child children is so weird and destructive and twisty. I never could see that though, until I was able to stop blaming myself for not having been able to figure this out. Thank heaven for this site. Cedar [/QUOTE]
