[QUOTE="Fran, post: 718539, member: 3"] Sorry for the pain you are in. As parents, the best we can do is work in the best interest of the child with what the child is made of. I think my unique child was born with his disabilities, personality and assets. I don't have much experience with attachment issues. I tried to make his strengths better and support his weaknesses. He never got "cured" but he is doing the best he can manage at this time. Your children have grown to be law abiding, tax paying adults. The fact they don't love or attach to you is heartbreaking but secondary to our job as parents. They both get to decide how they want to live their lives from now on. Don't bail them out, respond with positive truth and try to focus on making yourself a healthier, better human. Once they leave your nest, you can not control anything. Let it go. [/QUOTE]
