[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 309480, member: 1550"] Thanks, guys. She's a really good person who had some bad things happen to her that we didn't even know about as a kid (she was raped at eight and told nobody until she was fourteen) and she did hardcore drugs, but she quit at around 19 and is now 25. After my lovely daughter-in-law and my son have put me through a terrible two months that made me sick to my stomach, I really loved hearing my daughter's sweet, uplifting, excited voice telling me she was getting a real chef's job in an upscale restaurant, which is her dream. I really don't mean to brag. It's just that things had been so bad with son that I wanted to post an "upper" of a post to remind EVERYONE that kids can decide to change. I credit my daughter for changing, not me. The only thing we did was send her to Illinois when the peer pressure was ungodly awful here in Wisconsin. Actuallyl, we didn't even do that. We made her leave and she called her brother, asking if she could stay with him, then she straightened out since the druggie friends s he'd had were gone from her life. But even though I don't credit ME for this, I'm happy for and proud of her. And I need to feel good about her at this point in time. Boy, at one time I only wanted boys. My two girls are my sunshine. :happy: My boys, except for my Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son, have been major heartbreaks for me. [/QUOTE]
