[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 535429, member: 3305"] Nancy, Hopes and prayers that one of these days (soon) difficult child will truly hit bottom and surrender her will to G-ds. I believe she CAN change. I believe there is reason to have hope for her. She is still alive and still "trying" albeit barely at times it seems. I know how weary you must feel along this path. But your parenting is not in vain, in my humble opinion. I DO believe at some point...maybe a few more yrs, you will start to see her begin to work with the foundation that you husband and easy child put together for her many yrs ago. These things DO matter...I have seen it with my oldest difficult child who was a TOTAL lost cause (it seemed at the time) 7-8 yrs ago when he was hooked on Meth, stealing from husband's law firm client, selling his car for Meth...Just completely utterly hopeless at the time. But today...As husband and I just visited he and his second wife this past Sunday to see our new granddaughter...He lives with high standards...very clean upscale, he was watching, lol, a black and white old movie on the tv. He works extremely hard these days...husband says even harder than husband works now, and he has been sober going on a yr and half. There IS hope for these difficult child's. There REALLY is. And this coming from a mom who still has one son in prison...and remember my oldest difficult child ALSO spent time in prison. They are not finished yet. I truly believe this. Hugs and love, LMS [/QUOTE]
