[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 517684, member: 1233"] I am so glad you are seeing such progress and that HE is glad that he isn't violent or stealing any more. I know how gobsmacked I was the first time Wiz took my hand and massaged it so gently and kissed it because it was hurting from where he had hurt me in a rage. He knows that I don't blame him and that I KNOW that he couldn't control it at that time, and finally he is working on forgiving himself. It is great to see and to be a part of. You did the right thing to tell him with-o judgement and also to be proud that he is glad he isn't that way anymore. Llamafarm, I spent several years being 110% positive that my difficult child's adult years would be spent in prison (NOT JAIL, PRISON) for seriously hurting or killing someone, probably his sister or I. It got so bad I had to have him removed by the sheriff's office to save ALL of our lives because someone was going to end up dead. He ended up living wth my parents and we all worked hard to turn him around. Now he is an awesome young man with really GOOD people as close friends, with great grades in a 4 yr university, a job he has had for years, and a bright future ahead of him. I did NOT believe it when he was 11-15, but things DID get better. It took DRASTIC action and a lot of work, medications, therapies, etc..... but the results made it all worth it. [/QUOTE]
