[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 676163, member: 1631"] I thought my kids would never get alone. My daughter so resented our son whose mental illness took so much of our time. She was dealing with her own depression and anxiety as well. They are polar opposites. He is extroverted to the max and she is introverted to the max. My daughter used the word hate with him frequently and always said if she ever gets married he will not be invited to the wedding. She even called the police on him once. I really believed that as grown ups they would never see one another. About two years ago she started seeking therapy on her own (before that we had her going but the therapist wasn't good and she didn't progress) with a great therapist. She also went away to school. During that time she has matured and difficult child has also matured a lot (although is still a difficult child). They actually are now getting along for the most part. There are still times when they argue like crazy but that is less often (probably because she doesn't live here year round). In fact, the other night the two kids were coloring in the kitchen together and giggling for hours. [/QUOTE]
