[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 598348, member: 14356"] Barbara - I am so happy for you and your husband. The second half of your post sounded happy and hopeful. That is such a good thing! I'm sorry your difficult child is continuing to make very poor decisions. But they are her decisions and you are starting to see her life for what it is. You can't change her choices. I have found that when I acknowledge that lack of control over difficult child's life that it can be very sad and yet freeing at the same time. It allows me to stop festering over what I can do to change things and realize that the answer is 'nothing' so I may as well go and do something more positive with my time instead of spinning my wheels. I hope you and your husband have an enjoyable weekend doing what you love to do. [/QUOTE]
