[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 29944, member: 831"] What you wrote here jumped off the computer screen at me. I, too, have a family history of drug and alcohol. Not me, but my Dad, grandfather, uncles. Same with husband. I was so determined that my children were going to grow up happy and healthy because I was going to devote my life to raising them with security and love. I did do that, but genetic forces beyond my control gave me difficult children. After the devastation of realizing my children, inspite of my best efforts, need a lot more than just a good upbringing. That's when I went into action try and help them to the best of my ability. There's been many, many bumps in the road. And there's times when I simply want to throw in the towel and run away. When that passes, I pick myself up, and trudge on doing everything I can to help them. It's not my fault and it's not your fault. This is a great place for support and guidance. I shutter to think where my family would be if I hadn't found it. [/QUOTE]
