[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 52223, member: 805"] dlgallant, I, one of the moderators on this board, feel perhaps you may have read more into the posters comments than they intended. Understand that many, especially those who have been here for a very long time, have been through he** and back with their difficult children (just as you may have as well). Broken promises and excuses being just two of the things those with older (teens and up) difficult children deal with. I noticed on your PE post that it wasn't until later in the thread you mentioned your ex and his contribution to your daughter's issues. Perhaps some of the posters did not realize this history? Perhaps they felt it was a case of just another difficult child being a difficult child and taking no personal responsibility for their actions. Detachment is something that is looked upon favorably by those dealing with these issues day in and day out. I'm sorry that you are going through such a rough time right now. You've been through much pain and I don't believe it was anyone's intention to add to it. I'm sorry that you are unhappy here and have not felt the arms of support that I have for years. It is a soft place to land. Sometimes we all have a personal difficult child molment and speak out of frustration, or anger, or stress, or the weariness that weighs down us parents of difficult children. I do hope you will stick around. However, if you choose to not stay in the community we will understand it is you doing what is best for you. Sharon [/QUOTE]
