[QUOTE="Fran, post: 165879, member: 3"] Just imagine what Tiger's parents would have done if they had to raise one of our kids!!! Tiger is a wonderful role model and a prodigy. I wouldn't take anything away from him. He works very hard and has an incredible work ethic. Raising a easy child is normal difficult but we all know how much more difficult raising a child like ours is. Loving a successful kid is a lot easier than loving a difficult child. The love is the same whether a prodigy or in jail. It's not more or less just easier. in my humble opinion. Don't let your measure of success be compared to a Tiger Woods. Look for small progress from year to year. We keep getting up every time our difficult child's knock us down. We keep picking our difficult child's up everytime they sabotage themselves. I have to say we are probably made of stronger stuff from necessity. I'm not knowledgeable with Al Anon so I can't really offer any suggestions but look to what you need to get from them and use that as a topic. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
