[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I come from a family of four. Two of us launched easily/successfully. The other two didn't. You know what the difference was? The two kids who struggled had VERY SIGNFICANT mental health and/or cognitive challenges.

Your kids aren't struggling because it's fun - it's more likely that there are other barriers for them, perhaps ones you know about (but maybe ones you don't).[/quote]

I'm a bit of a "failure to thrive" case. I had issues that my parents didn't know about or didn't want to know about, including chronic depression that started when I was just a kid. In my late twenties, they were just frustrated with me, but we did some therapy together and since then it's been a lot better. They understand me more, I got past my bitterness toward them, and I've made a pretty good life for myself with their help. [/quote]

Thanks for posting this. I'm glad things are better for you and hope you have a great life. Depression is so horrible. Hugs. [/quote]
