[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 519564, member: 13882"] Exhausted, I'm glad for your peace of mind that she's home. You're in the same exact position as we were one year ago. difficult child put everyone in our family through hell with his selfishness. He turned 18 and we returned all his problems and consequences over to him. Although difficult children have parents who give them good counsel, teach them about commitment and industriousness, the difficult children just avoid all responsibility, deflect blame and make a mess of their lives and the lives of their family members. Time that should be spent building character and resilience are wasted, and they never seem to grow up. The worst part is they don't engage in rational conversation...it always becomes about their frustration and demands. Well, the real world doesn't work that way. Sorry to say, but some kids have to learn everything the hard way, and they leave a lot of broken glass along their journey. [/QUOTE]
