[QUOTE="busywend, post: 60890, member: 391"] Excellent point Ant'smom! I think it all depends on the intervention and support the family receives. You could actually impact the family in a positive way helping to allow that boy to achieve success. By the way, success to us is: a law abiding, tax paying citizen. We do not expect college, careers, huge homes, etc. - but if we get it (and some do!) it is gravy in our eyes. My difficult child just started her first job yesterday. My boyfriend probably feels the same as you - although he has never expressed it. He is not great at communicating altough we are working on it. I would love to hear him say that to me though. I would totally respect and agree that we should wait for difficult child to move on if he thinks he could never live with her. You are wise to pursue more information, but unfortunately there ar eno guarantees for anything. Every child is different, just as every ODD child is different. [/QUOTE]
