[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 97975, member: 2315"] When my difficult child was in I didn't go to see him but I worried about him alot. I would push it away but then I would come across something that reminded me of him as a little boy and allt he feelings would flood back in. After a while it got easier. I would actually enjoy thinking about him as a little boy and I could do it without getting angry about where he ended up. Now I stay involved only to help him stay on track. I call him once a week and take his calles when he wants to talk. But I do not get involved with his chaos. If he starts complaining I tell him to talk with his therapist. It is no longer my problem and I LIKE it that way. It is a process and we all take a different amount of time to end up in the same place. You will get there. Take time for yourself and heal. I have learned to be protective of me. It was a hard lesson but one that is well worth learning. -RM [/QUOTE]
