Oh, no Janet! I don't think so. Our psychotherapist took one look at our son, and his intense efforts to disassociate from us at the time, and told us that, in his opionion, it would be years before the layers our son was piling on himself, as his way of coping with life, could and would be stripped away, leaving us the core individual we thought we were raising.
Maybe he was wrong, but this is a highly respected individual who even writes a column in newspapers in our area. In any case, please try to not give up your hopes!
