[QUOTE="So Tired, post: 152658, member: 4772"] Welcome Chrisdog! Wow, all these kids sound so similar in their behaviors -- it's like they have some sort of secret handbook "101 ways to drive your parents bonkers!" It sounds like you and your husband are doing a phenomenal (sp?) job of both being on the same page, making thoughtful decisions and following through on them. I'm glad you both have each other for support. I understand what you are saying about the pain of being around all the graduating seniors -- it is so hard because it should be a time of excitement and joy for you and it's hard not to feel cheated out of the "normal" things. My son went from being a college-bound, bright, band student to just barely graduating. It is hard to talk to the other mom's I know from school because the talk always turns to how things are going with the kids and I am very sad and embarassed about the path my son is choosing. I wishing you strength and hope. It is a relief to be able to come here where other parents understand. Welcome! [/QUOTE]
