[QUOTE="busywend, post: 84881, member: 391"] Well, I sent mine to her father's house. Much different. But, I still felt the pain of changing up her life so much. I do not feel guilty for it. But, I sure wish it was not necessary to have to do something like that. I feel worse about the fact that I did not get the 'good' parenting experience that I know exists with a easy child. Don't get me wrong. I love my difficult child to pieces and we get along much better these days, but I will always wonder what it would be like to have a child that was like me as a child. I was a easy child. I am grateful for not having put another child through what a lot of you have to with siblings, but I still would have loved to have gotten the easy child parenting experience. I am too fearful of getting another difficult child to try. Feeling guilty is very unproductive. Your difficult child might not even be alive if you had not sent her away. You will never know what might have been. If things are improved, than try to be grateful for that. [/QUOTE]
