Hi, I just signed up today after reading thru some posts last night. I have no idea how to do this chat/forum, etc. but I need help...
My best friend died when she was 35 (16 yrs. ago) and she left a boy and a girl, the sweetest children in the world. I told her before she died that I would always be a part and watch over her children.
the "boy" is messed up emotionally, mentally and now snorting oxy for the last year off and on. He has a VERY loving family full of forgiveness with all paths leading to God. I think they have done all they can do.
I am taking a leap of faith with my husb. to try and help the boy no matter what it takes, he never said goodbye to his Mom and NEVER grieved for her. He is very sad and angry that his Mom wasn't there for him like all of his other friends.
I am so scared he is going to give up and not choose to keep on "keepin' on"!

Another question to ponder is why we codependents allow some people to treat us like carp and come back for more?[/QUOTE]
