[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 572719, member: 7083"] My daughter is almost 18 and is years away from being independent and no one knows what level of independence she will ever achieve. I've struggled with that over the years, and it's been hitting me again recently. I get very frustrated and even resentful at times. I think it's Steely that talks about Radical Acceptance - just radically accepting that this is the way it is. I just keep putting one foot in front of the other. We have everything possible in place to get her to independence if it's possible. That's all I can do. Some days I accept it better than others. [/QUOTE]
