[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone can give this advice OP. Everyone's child is different. Mine were perfect (in my eyes) until 18 and now DD has some serious mental health challenges that I did not see coming, other than the fact that my DH also has similar issues. She was the perfect DD, top grades, top athlete but it's all unraveling now. Nothing I could have done to stop it but have to get her through it. You just have to support them the best you can and try to be there for them unconditionally.[/quote] I'm sorry pp. We all like to think we have a lot more control than we really do. It's not that what we do doesn't matter, it does. But genes are incredibly powerful and temperament, personality, and risk factors for mental illness are a good bit out of our control. We also can't always control whether our child will experience a trauma that may impact how they see the world. So many things. [/quote]
