Diana, When our kids accomplish something wonderful we're proud of them... Not ourselves for having accomplished whatever it is they did. In the same way, when they stumble and fail, it's not because we didn't try to teach them better.

If you need a shoulder I'm here for you. You know I've had my moments with my own kids, so I really doubt there's anything you could tell me that would shock me or make me think any thing bad about you or yours.
My prayers are with you

Thanks for your poem, Janet and your kind words, Gayle. Tink, I really appreciate your words of experience. I know that you've gone through a lot with your kids too.

Diana you might need to have your daughter talk to mine. She was a hellion as a teenager. About 6 years ago, she turned around, she does not know why she did the things she did. I have my sweet little girl back.

Diana, I don't know what's going on, and I've never been a parent myself so I've got no advice, so I'm just here to offer (((((((((HUGS)))))))))) of support.

Thanks Michelle and Lindsey for your support. Hugs are always appreciated!!

My daughter has just been making some wrong decisions lately, and has been for some time, I found out. No matter what, though, I'm still her mother and I still love her. I'm just having a hard time believing that the decisions that she's making are in her best interest but she's 26 and an adult. The hard part is that her decisions are really affecting the rest of the family but hopefully, in time, things will get better.

It is difficult when children make decisions we don't agree with - but you said it, they are her decisions. It is hard when they affect the rest of the family. Things will change in time - maybe not the way we want them to change, but one thing is sure, change is constant.
