[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 703253, member: 17542"] Copa, I'm just catching up here, and just read the whole thread. I see you taking big steps here even just in the past 9 days since you first posted here. Setting boundaries with him...realizing how tired you are...and then speaking your heart's truth to your son today. When nothing changes, nothing changes. But see, YOU have changed, and so there is another chance for change in you, in your relationship with him, and we hope, with him. This is the hardest stuff in the entire world, wanting so much, trying so hard, and watching them struggle again and again and again and again. You do have rights. You have the right to peace and serenity and joy and comfort in your life. If he's there, can you those things? Is it possible? I know it's also hard to have those things when he isn't there. There just is no perfect solution, but like you said, you can't be doing this when he's 40 years old and older. You are walking forward, one step at a time. That's all anyone can do. We're here with you. [/QUOTE]
