[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 621511, member: 17635"] Hi Have, I have been reading your story and am so very sorry you are going through this place and time. We all blame ourselves and it is so important to get past that. You will. When our difficult child's continue to make very bad choices, there comes a point when you realize they are adults and these choices are on them. If they cannot learn from continually getting themselves in bad spots, if they do not change their behavior, if they are not moving toward something better, what can we do? Nothing, except I agree with handing it over to a higher power. Sometimes when that worrying starts in my head (especially in the middle of the night), i repeat "Do I trust You, God? Yes, I do. I know You will work this out. Please send angels to protect difficult child"...words like that. It helps remind me that i KNOW God is in control and to stop thinking like I do not know it. We muddle through, best we can, until we get stronger and stronger. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
