[QUOTE="pasajes4, post: 616611, member: 12856"] There are so many thoughtful responses to your post. You are raw right now and struggling with being the mom of an adult child who is exhibiting some less than loveable behaviors. We hang onto the visions of our difficult children when they were young, sweet, and innocent. Their world revolved around us. Our words of wisdom and our guidance was welcomed by our children. There was nothing we would not do for our kids. Then they grow up push us away, and begin to live their lives in ways that stab us to the very core. We try to get back to that sweet soft place by continuing to be that parent. We are no longer parenting those children. We must become a different kind of parent and learn to protect our hearts, finances, and sometimes our lives. It is difficult. [/QUOTE]
