[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 630431, member: 59"] I felt the exact same way. We offered our daughter so many opportunities and she wasted all of them. Today she will tell you very clearly that she was stupid and kicks herself every day for not taking advantage of what she was offered. I'm not saying your son will feel the same way and I am amazed that ours admits this, but she is living with her choices now and she is struggling and she looks around at her sister and her old friends and she sees with her own eyes better than we could ever tell her, what she is missing. It's sad for me and I wish I could give her those opportunities again but life has moved on and we are not getting any younger and maybe this will help her work harder to get out of the hole she has dug for herself. Couldn't agree more, I needed a long break for my daughter beforre I could even look at her without a scorn on my face. My hurt and anger were so close to the surface I needed to be away from her to center myself again. [/QUOTE]
