[QUOTE="lambsear2, post: 481213, member: 5136"] Thanks for all the responses and reassurance. Buddy- I have to update my signature line. When I say that husband as full custody I mean since difficult child was 3yo. Certainly now that difficult child is 20 he is considered an adult in many ways and therefore responsible for himself. mrsammler: It is nice to hear from someone that has lived in difficult child shoes. We have spoken to difficult child about serving the in the military, but I have reservations as to how that would work with his ODD. In truth difficult child has to first realize and accept that he has a problem. He needs to take owner ship of his actions and situation. Then if he wants to change, I believe it will come. We will be here for him when that time arrives. Putting a child out is a sink or swim moment. It is hard to watch them struggle. But the pressure that the Grandparents are putting on us makes things worse. Lukily husband & I are on the same page. I just wish that difficult child had some clue as to why the family is upset with him. [/QUOTE]
