[QUOTE="missy44, post: 287533, member: 6201"] I just read your reply to standswithcourage and you really made me think. Although things are going well (for right now) they are not perfect and I still seem to focus way too much on my difficult child. I have three other wonderful children and a wonderful husband that I need to remember. My difficult child is still off drugs, is working and in therapy but I'm noticing his "attitude" is creeping up a bit more now that he's feeling comfortable. He has one of his "old" friends that he's planning on getting together with (he wants to save this young man) on neutral territory and swears he won't fall back again (his girlfriend would leave him in a flash and I would have to ask him to leave our home). I find myself focusing soooo much on the "what ifs". You've reminded me that the control is in my difficult child's hands. He can soar with it or he can leave it, and nothing I do will change the outcome. Today, I"m going to focus on my wonderful family and be thankful for what I do have. Thank you.... [/QUOTE]
