[QUOTE="klmno, post: 363744, member: 3699"] in my humble opinion, you kindly suggest they do just what you posted, then leave it alone and don't go back to the subject or offer any more advice unless they ask. We all know how difficult it is to go thru the adjustment of accepting that we can't rescue or even help with every situation our difficult child's get into. Going thru the process of understanding that they are a difficult child and not a easy child is a grieving process in itself- meaning it takes time and there are a lot of emotional stages to work thru. This is just my opinion- maybe others with older difficult child's will have better ideas of what might help these parents more. [/QUOTE]
