[QUOTE="ML, post: 277446"] Jena I feel your pain. Go easy on yourself, you are doing the best you can. I too feel those diminishing reserve pains at time. You may have to pull back a little and let difficult child begin to develop some coping skills. To difficult child: honey I understand you're scared about summer camp but I have confidence in you and I know you will face those fears and that you will figure out how to make the best of it. I think sometimes we need to empower them by backing off and decreasing their dependency on us. I do know they're young and their lives won't be easy, but you have to have those reserves for you otherwise you'll burn out and be no good to anyone. I'm trying to back off a little from manster's drama and break those connections and synapses that tell me I have to rescue him from the pain. One day at a time. You're doing great. We love you.
