[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 722472, member: 18958"] lbl. i read qbout two sisters both writers. both about 70 now. lily and doris brett. actually, doris is a psychologist primarily. born in poland of a holocaust survivor family and immigrating to australia. lily is the more famous one. huge feud. almost 40 years, about their experience of their mother and their common childhood which they saw as differently as night and day. lily used her writing to explore holocaust pain and horror through the dysfunction of her mother who she said was ever depressed and rageful. doris says mother was placid and ever loving. that it was lily who raged, terrorizing her. she began to write she says to defend her mother's memory. i am completely estranged from my own sister. it is not that we see our lives differently but more as we perceive and experience each other. kind of like what you infer about your son and your own experience of each other , at least in the last few years. except in your case i really do believe that there are not two fully functioning brains at play. due to immaturity your son is not playing with a full deck. his moral development is affected by this. his ability and willingness to take responsibility for actions and events. and the feedback loop of the drugs. none of this speaks to his eventual capacity to one day live a full life. i believe he is like the grand majority of vietnam vets gabor deacribes whose addiction to heroin was circumstantial-- and who recovered. of course life can intervene with these "normal" kids can before they mature and recover. (you see, i believe the preponderance of energy is towards health. ) but that is fate. we all of us deal with that fortunately for most they can remain oblivious. we cannot. [/QUOTE]
