[QUOTE="Shari, post: 422398, member: 1848"] You weren't here when difficult child 1 left. And he was a far cry from the worst kid on this board. The weekend before he left, he spent $1500 on God knows what to get drunk and high. He overdrew his bank account. He broke into houses, he drove drunk [I]every [/I]night. My biggest fear was that he would kill someone else. He lit his brother's bed on fire. He wrote songs about raping girls. I couldn't leave him alone with Wee. He was suicidal. I didn't think he would be ok, either. No one in my family did. And I'm not saying your easy child will be ok or not. I'm just saying that with my difficult child 1, there was nothing more I could do, and that's where you are. I knew that the military was his last shot (in fact, if he wouldn't have been going into the military, I would have called the police on his myself to put a stop to it all). It was sink or swim. He sank first (in the military). Then he learned to swim. Your easy child isn't in the military, but she has to sink or swim now. I understand, Jena. We all do. [/QUOTE]
