[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 281505, member: 3450"] I too would say it is good to be prepared but I wouldn't let the psychiatrist's response carry too much weight at this time. My difficult child 1 had a therapist she was working with who really tried to emphasize that difficult child 1 might not be able to make it in the real world because of her emotional problems. Well, she is making it in the real world--it might not be how I would choose to do it but she is on her own, has a job, got her GED, has a baby she seems to be caring for properly, etc. She was far more capable than her therapist thought and I'm sorry we were so ready to buy in to the therapist's viewpoint (of course this therapist was really awful, I don't know why we bought into her viewpoint anyway!) Never say never--so much can change. Hugs, Jane [/QUOTE]
