[QUOTE="Kalahou, post: 746434, member: 19617"] DoneDad, I’ve followed your prior stories the past years, and know this “repeat” situation is devastating. Your post above definitely sounds like you understand your situation and have strength to see it through. You and wife do need to be on the same page, and I hope your therapy offers that chance for you to use those "I" statements ([I] I need this because I feel that...[/I] [I]That won't work for me. I need xx) [/I]to stand together.[I] [/I] You are right that it looks like this pattern may continue with daughter, and not the last time that she will likely be pregnant, as it is her pattern to force her crisis on you, as you said. How is this affecting your 4 yr old grandson with the ongoing drama? It certainly cannot be good for him. I have no wisdom here except what is repeatedly expounded on this site about detachment. Know that we care for you and understand. Take care of yourself. [/QUOTE]
