[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 668124, member: 18516"] Yes, he is a grown man, his life, his choices. He may hate that you have stopped giving into him but I really do not believe he hates you. My son used to scream at me that he hated me and those words cut deep but over time I learned it was just his immaturity lashing out. I have no doubt that you will be remembered as a good mother. You have loved your son and have always been there for him, you have been a good mother. You are not cursed and you have done nothing to deserve the heartache you have endured. I too have experienced much in my life, childhood abuse, illness, loss and a Difficult Child. I have learned to embrace all that life throws my way and learn from it. None of us are immune to life's tragedy's. The lyrics to this song by Darryl Worley ring true for me. [B]"Sounds Like Life To Me" Got a call last night from an old friend’s wife Said I hate to bother you Johnny Ray fell off the wagon He’s been gone all afternoon I know my buddy so I drove to Skully’s And found him at the bar I say hey man, what’s going on He said I don’t know where to start Sarah’s old car’s about to fall apart And the washer quit last week We had to put momma in the nursing home And the baby’s cutting teeth I didn’t get much work this week And I got bills to pay I said I know this ain’t what you wanna hear But it’s what I’m gonna say [I][Chorus][/I] Sounds like life to me it ain’t no fantasy It’s just a common case of everyday reality Man I know it’s tough but you gotta suck it up To hear you talk you’re caught up in some tragedy It sounds like life to me Well his face turned red and he shook his head He said you don’t understand Three kids and a wife depend on me And I’m just one man To top it off I just found out That Sarah’s 2 months late I said hey bartender set us up a round We need to celebrate [I][Chorus][/I] Sounds like life to me plain old destiny Yeah the only thing for certain is uncertainty You gotta hold on tight just enjoy the ride Get used to all this unpredictability Sounds like life Man I know its tough but you gotta suck it up To hear you talk you’re caught up in some tragedy Sounds like life to me Sounds like life [/B] [/QUOTE]
