[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 713873, member: 19832"] This site is a great source of strength and support to stay strong. I keep having to reread posts, so I don't start doubting myself. My situation is similar and different. I have 3 kids, he oldest two by my first husband. They are in their 30's and still expect me to rescue them. My daughter has left another abuser, has two children, and is on the verge of homelessness. My older son will be released from jail in a few months with no place to go. They both blame me and have not treated me well. I relate to what you said -"I have to make it stick." Me, too. Twelve step helps me because I have a really good group, but mostly I keep having to tell myself that they are adults, they make their choices, and I am not responsible for them anymore, no matter how much they try to guilt me. Keep working on serenity within the storm. [/QUOTE]
