[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 673655, member: 18958"] Hopeful, you did really well. You sound so, well, hopeful. And strong. That is kind of the way it is here, too. For years M tried so hard. Wanted to give my son every opportunity to be included. To give him work. To teach him how to work. To have him with us. When that did not work he wanted to buy him a house. You name it. Now he is just disgusted. Not hopeful. I guess things went south when my son called the cops on us repeatedly and gave M a black eye. (That will kind of do it, I think.) M sees my son as lazy, irresponsible, self-important, controlling, dominating. He almost acts bitter. But really it is disgusted. The lack of hope on M's part is really tough for me. I want [I]somebody[/I] to have hope. It sure gets harder at the holidays. COPA [/QUOTE]
