[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 505448, member: 2315"] I understand. I am kinda in the same place with my difficult child#2. Nothing ever changes. I wish him well but I just don't want to be a part of his life untill he gets it together if he ever does. True, I do not have to deal with him at the moment. He is in a prison over an hour away but he might get out in a few months. He will most likely come back to my town as that is what he knows. I dread that. I have resigned myself to the possibility that he might not be able to stay out of trouble while on parole and have to serve his entire sentance and more. I also realize it is not my problem. The hardest thing to admit though is that I really do not want him in my life anymore. It is just too hard watching that train wreck over and over again. Some members of my family think I am cold hearted. I know better, and it hurts that they think that. So, I no longer try to explain myself, it is what it is. The fact is when the pain is too much to bear we block it out. It is a survival mechanism and I for one I am thankful for that ability. -RM [/QUOTE]
