[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 615037, member: 13542"] Echolette, we parents here go through so much self doubt and we suffer so for what our kids do. As a veteran of these battles, one thing I have found to be true is that when we stop judging ourselves so harshly, blaming ourselves, making ourselves responsible for the behavior and choices of our adult kids, then others stop judging us too. Perhaps it's simply that we are not complicit in their blame of us anymore and therefore don't see it or acknowledge it, but it ceases to exist. The line that always made sense to me is, "what you think of me is none of my business." Period. [/QUOTE]
