[QUOTE="bran155, post: 243023"] It is so normal to feel that way. In fact, I am still mourning the child that I had hoped my daughter would be. When I am out and I see a mother and daughter shopping together, having lunch together, laughing, having a good time together I still, after all these years, feel sadness that I can't have those experiences with my daughter. It is a huge adjustment for us moms. I guess the first step is acceptance, we have to accept that our children are different. But we can enjoy them in our own special ways. We can still have happy times with them. Like you said, it is much more important that your son get the treatment he needs and is safe. The rewards will be much greater than seeing him off on his first date. Hang in there, it will get easier for you! :) [/QUOTE]
