[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 620658, member: 13542"] Cedar, there is so much to this detachment from our kids stuff. It is heartbreaking, filled with sorrow, has a lot of fear in it and it hurts. AND, that's enough............we don't have to add the judgement to it, that is our stuff, the rest is because we are their parents and it's tough to let go when we don't understand what is going on and we are afraid for them and if they are mentally ill or involved in drugs, that adds a lot more fear............but, yeah, I think the judgement part is worth throwing overboard. Doing that helps us a lot and at least for me, offers compassion for them and gives us more freedom to really let them go into their own destiny. I work on that everyday. [/QUOTE]
