[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 725441, member: 18516"] It's never easy when someone asks about our difficult adult children. Knowing who you can trust with the truth can be a slippery slope. It helps to have some "canned answers" at the ready. EX: How's your daughter/son doing? As well as can be expected. What's your daughter/son doing these days? Oh, a little of this and that, just trying to make ends meet. After giving a quick, non descript answer, I change the subject. I have had people push for "real" answers and I simply tell them I do not care to discuss it any further. I used to worry about what people would think but am over that now. I really don't care what people think of me. What they think is none of my business. You also learn who your true friends are. Wishing you a good day today. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
