[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 534998, member: 59"] Sig it must be bittersweet to see your sons interact and know this is the way it could be all the time. Don't you just want to shake him and ask him why he doesn't want that? I tried to figure this out with regard to my difficult child too and the conclusion I came to is that when I was her age I didn't want much to do with my parents either. Although I loved them I really wanted to spend all my time with my friends and if they tried to convince me to be more connected to family I probably wouldn't want to. But them my family was a bit dysfunctional and there was good reason for me not wanting to be there much. With difficult child I can't understand why she doesn't want to be involved in our family events because I think we are pretty neat. TL I am glad he is settled into the program and you can start to relax again. You must be emotionally drained. Nancy [/QUOTE]
