[QUOTE="nlj, post: 636254, member: 17650"] I haven't posted much lately Echo, but I'm reading along and thinking of you. As Blackgnat says, our sons have a different timescale from us. They have already moved on into the next bs while we are still dealing with the last one. I really don't think they have any idea of the effect that anything has on us. To them we are just 'the mother' who is always there, always the same, the constant in the centre of chaos. I really don't think they get that we can be sad, worried, disappointed, distraught. They seem to be able to empathise with all the dodgy people that they come across and their 'tragic' lives, but are incapable of empathising with us and would never consider that we had tragedy in our own lives caused by them.
