[QUOTE="HeadlightsMom, post: 649198, member: 18284"] InsaneCdn -- Thank you! Actually, I just wrote a reply on someone else's thread and was reminded of many of the reasons our son is not allowed here now. Of course, I love him and want good things for him (which, ultimately, only he can decide and pursue). However....... I admit I'm feeling better about having some distance from him right now. Sherril2000 -- Thank you for your very kind words. Our son is now 24 (25 next month) and this is how it's been with him, intermittently, for 9 years. Some days I'm accustomed to it, other days not. Although it's not good (it does hurt my heart), I was just recalling certain specific violent threats and acts he committed -- toward us and others. While my heart hurts on the one level, it feels some relief on another level. It's always a balancing act, isn't it? I'm sorry to hear you're all too familiar with this scenario, too. May God bless all of our kids and.......us parents, too! Sherril2000 -- by the way, just noticed you're a new member here. Welcome to the group! May we all find peace in our souls. There often comes a point where we have to let go and/or establish some very tangible and firm boundaries for our own safety, sanity and health. We all have that right! Free Will.... [/QUOTE]
