[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 642658, member: 18516"] I think it would only be odd to someone who has not been through what so many of us have. I have been so blessed by reading the posts on these pages. I only wish I could have found this site years ago and I might have saved myself a few years of soul searching. My bio-father was the one that abused me and once my mother discovered what he was doing to me and my sisters she got us out of there. It took me many years to work through the shame of my childhood but I did it. I also found someone who truly loves me. My husband adopted my difficult child, those first few years were wonderful, then the chaos started. Through it all he has been by my side supporting me and loving me. I do not take for granted how blessed I am. My difficult child is in his mid thirty's and I don't think he will ever change. I will always have hope that someday he will but I keep myself grounded in reality. My life isn't perfect and I don't think I would want it to be because it is through the trials of my life that I have learned and grown as an individual. I have family that I love dearly and some that I just tolerate. I have wonderful friends and belong to a great church. All in all my life is pretty darn good. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the coming New Year. [/QUOTE]
