so this is my 1st post...my reasoning for being here is to find support and do anything i can to support...i have 2 children ages 8&10 with a control freak for an exhusband...its been 6yrs and still nothing positive...i am lonely and being judged often by family with there you should be doing this attitudes...was just hoping that i wasnt the only one with this heartbreak..it would just be nice to know of someone that i could talk to with the same issue.. <font color="blue"> </font>

Welcome to PC. I'm not sure I understand what your situation is, but if you explain it a little more I'm sure there will be people here who have had similar situations & can offer support.--Suzy

You are not alone. I have been without my child now for 4 years, and have not seen him for the same amount of time for any length of time. (a couple times I spotted him around town but we were unable to talk to each other.) His dad has nothing to do with this since he is dead. I dont have my child here at home because he is in a residential treatment program due to his own violence, suicidal behavior, and so on. My child will not be coming home to live until he turns 18. he is now 13. I do have visitation when he is stable and his therapist says he is ready.

Welcome to the group Pandora. I don't totally understand your situation, but I do understand much of what you have said. I grew up in a family that "should" all over me. Doesn't do a person very well. Take one step and or instance at a time. I found in my own experience, this didn't happen overnight, it is a way of life (although I am pretty much estranged from most of my family) it will take time to learn how to live more positively.

As for partners in our lives, we often choose unknowningly (and sometimes knowningly) people that parallel the very behavior we wish to get away from, but it has become or was our norm.

Little steps. This is a good place to start that...and just posting, is the first in the right direction. Welcome aboard.
