[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 674372, member: 18958"] I do not believe that one's life can be shaped by one person. I think our children had and still have a range of choices. I think that we took too much responsibility and continue to do so. Our children want to continue this pattern instead of going and establishing their own lives, apart from us. Maybe I created this pattern, laid it out for him and he molded himself to it. But it is not too late to change. Not for me or for him. People learn and change course. It is possible. That we have decided to change does not make us responsible one hundred percent for what came before. It is a dance. We are doing the best we can. This is real life. Not dress rehearsal. I forgive myself. Try to forgive yourself, too. COPA [/QUOTE]
