[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 581281, member: 13542"] Barbara, here's my unsolicited advice, throw that guilt overboard, there is NO MISSING PIECE, nothing you did or didn't do would have changed anything, it is a futile attempt, it goes nowhere, it is a waste of your precious time..............as Erma Bombeck said, "guilt is the gift that keeps on giving." You must simply stop that line of thinking...........you did not,nor do you have the power to control any of your kids lives, they had free choice to do it, not you. You are free of that burden, let it go. I suffered under that fantasy for a long time and it did no good for anyone, especially me. You did your best,with what you knew at the time, if you had known better, you would have done better, end of story. You can't imagine all the energy that is released to you once you stop the guilt................you deserve to have your life free of that guilt so you can birth yourself.............. [/QUOTE]
