[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 102823, member: 3907"] HWGA, I am another one who was raised by my grandmother, and my parents were (still are) major difficult children. My grandmother was my best friend and confidante, truly a wonderful woman and a blessing in my life. Your granddaughter is very lucky and blessed to have you and your wife. It makes me happy to know that your granddaughter has parents/grandparents like you to turn to. And your youth and health are a huge blessing. She will have you for a long time. My grandmother was very ill and died when I was 12, and I was pretty-well on my own at that point. Although I lived in my parents' house (until I was 17 and able to move away), once my grandmother was gone I truly did raise myself. But, my grandmother taught me how to be a parent, even if I was parenting myself. Without her love and guidance in the early years, I think I would have gone much farther down the difficult child road than I did. You are doing a wonderful thing. All the best, Trinity [/QUOTE]
