Thank you for your encouragement. I am sorry to hear that both your kids have abandoned you.
It's like we give everything to our kids for a better life and then they turn their back on you.
I will try to focus on our younger son but my heart is broken. I will wait and hope one day my son will remember us and the wonderful family that we were.

I am constantly thinking about how much things have changed, especially people all ages are different, much more aggression and anger is often rage filled. I also have two sons and most of the time it’s tolerable in our relationship but my pain always lies with the grandchildren, I find myself hurting because of a hurtful comment and instead of saying something about it I just hold it in, the problem is that I don’t function well when I hold in my feelings. I always fear that they will make it harder for us to get together if I speak my truth, I agree, our children are very different especially when we compare them to ourselves, every generation does it. I think that we have to think more about ourselves and let them do what they want, things always keep changing and one day they will understand what they have been doing to their parents, at least I hope so.
