Oh dear, this is heart breaking...  But I'm glad you always find the positive side of each challenges thrown to you. You are a strong woman. It reminds me of something the mothers in the Desperate Housewives said,
"It is when things go wrong that you know how strong you are"

 Hopes and prayers, clare.

I The Scripture and cultural tradition can be applied to development as an adult with 20/20 hindsight. Certainly you are a later generation of motherhood. Yes that’s worth celebrating love. BC-A, Bill’s RJLst

gracenhope, I'm sure you have already been through the book "Transactional Analysis".  It is the book about the three voices inside each of us.  Parent, child, adult.  When she behaves toward me like a child, i'm always trying not to respond in a childish way.  eventually I recognize her adult talking to my adult.  That's when good times start.  Excellent work here.

It is Mothers day in Australia too...I will here from one son I expect.
I agree with you about always loving your child...my younger son hates me and there is no way now for us ever to have a relationship again....but I will always love him...that part is a given.....I don't even have to think about forgiving him...that to is a given....I just pray he has the best life that he can.
