[QUOTE="witzend, post: 171633, member: 99"] As much as we can detach from our kids, we still love them and it still hurts to watch them do such stupid things. You and your husband went way above and beyond here. Even though it was husband who did the hands on, you had to trust that it would work out and not be a stress to your lives. Now you know, I guess. He enjoyed the handout (the job gotten at the expense of your husband's good name and graces) and took advantage. You don't have to offer that again. Maybe someday you will all come to a comfortable place with what he needs and what you have to offer, but today isn't it. It's awful that you have to go through this with difficult child, it must just break your heart. Know that you did your best, and that your difficult child isn't ready. Give yourselves a break and look to your own future. The past and difficult child's role in it is never going to change. For now, all you can do is make today and your future as happy as possible. And for now, difficult child isn't a part of that. {{{{{{{{{{{Big hugs}}}}}}}}} [/QUOTE]
