[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 321244, member: 1991"] I think you are very wise to be helping husband find his own way in this. Whatever decisions are made, you each need to own the decision and make it with full understanding of the a as well as the range of possible outcomes. You each need to know what you are asking of each other as well as yourselves and you need to make the decisions understanding your own motives and reasons as well as each other's. From your descriptions of Ann, I think her current needs are beyond your scope, within your current family environment. But that doesn't mean you're giving up on her, it just means you're reaching out for a wider scope of help and more resources. A phrase that parents here have used - "sometimes we need to be a family with different addresses." Sometimes you have a choice in the matter and sometimes you don't. It's always best when you can act with choice. Marg [/QUOTE]
