"In my heart, I KNOW we have done everything possible for him and need to send him out to figure it out on his own. He has rebuffed all help extended to him. I am working on giving up my vision for his future based on his childhood and his intelligence, and I am learning to "accept" the path he is choosing to tread on now."
That is where I am right now with our 28 YO son. I KNOW in MY head we've done everything (and probably more than we should) but it's still hard to let go. I too am working on giving up my dreams and vision for what I thought his life would be like based on what he was like as a child. He had so much potential. It just tears my heart up to see his life wasted right now and our relationship down the tube. The grief hits in waves.
