[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 341153, member: 1436"] Welcome to our little corner of the world. Many of us have been in your position. It is hard to watch the child you loved and raised make decisions that you know will lead him down a path to destruction...and really all you can do is sit back and watch...there is nothing you can do to change things. And it hurts. And it makes you sad. The way you survive it to try and detach yourself from the situations and the drama they cause themselves. You learn to say things like, "I'm sorry to hear that. What are you going to do?" You learn to look for ways to enjoy life. You look for new hobbies. You do whatever you can to NOT think about what to do to help your child. Because the only thing you can do to help, is to sit back and wait for him to want to change. [/QUOTE]
