[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 680677, member: 18958"] Below seem to be the operative descriptors. I think I vote for this. I find PE focused on issues of conduct. There is also the assumption that if not for drug use or other poor decisions, the adult child would or could decide to live differently and better. There is a moral bias, at least it seems so to me. That outlook has been helpful to me to a point. It has been less helpful because of the very real reasons my son cannot (yet) do this and may always be limited in this way. I need help with this. There are real losses that have to be dealt with. Not to mention that our children require us to be present to them in a way that others may not. We have to find the strength somewhere to deal with this. Yes. Well said, Insane. I would appreciate a focus on adult children, who should mature but for whatever reason cannot be so. That is what causes us the most exquisite of pains. And what sets us and our children apart from the other PE parents. Thank you Insane for identifying this excellent and needed resource and thank you RB and others for your support. COPA [/QUOTE]
