Hi Family-
It's been a few months, so thought I'd give you all an update. I see so many of you struggling with your adult children, it really breaks my heart. Thank God for this forum and the support here. I don't know how I would have survived the last 10 years without your support. THANK YOU!
We've had a few bumps in the road, but overall, SB is doing really well. She is in therapy, finally getting to the root of what causes her self loathing and working on how to move past it and have a happy life. She is also working on impulse control, which has been a huge issue for her since she was a toddler. She struggles sometimes to overcome it, but is working really hard to keep control. I am so very proud of her for doing the work it takes to have a healthy life.
She is working with Lincolns dad on a parenting agreement and shared custody. Lincoln is almost 5 and has been living with his dad in NC for the last 2 years. He has visited, but everyone felt it was best to let him continue to live there until SB could be a responsible parent. He is well taken care of and is doing great. We skype with him and keep in touch.
We found out a few weeks ago that SB is pregnant. I had really mixed feelings in the beginning, but now am grateful that she is well enough to handle it this time. She is almost 24 and has been a good mom to her boyfriend's daughter for the last year. She is close to our family again and has the support from all of us. I believe this is a blessing to us all.
Thank you all for your loving support. I pray daily for you all. Stay strong and know that anything is possible.
Love and Blessings,
Julie
