[QUOTE="busywend, post: 253410, member: 391"] Steely, all we really want is for our children to be safe and happy. The more you see that in your difficult child the less you will hold onto this 'baggage'. I totally understand the abuse by one's own child. While mine never actually struck me, I for sure felt abused in the relationship. I still do now and then, although nothing like the past. Every time I see something good in my difficult child I am so grateful for it that I leave a bit of the hurt behind. I will probably never let my guard down. I can imagine in 10 years being a bit stressed anticipating difficult child bringing her kids over for a visit. It might be my life forever. I have accepted that - as long as my difficult child is safe and happy. [/QUOTE]
