@suzleigh I so appreciate your wise input! My Grandson, who is 25, has a bad case of ADD, and won’t take his medicine! He’s alienated his parents, and most everybody
else, in the family, with his attitude! I took him in, over a year ago, because he had no where else to go! His only friends were those that he played games with, on the internet! He trusted no one, and was very bitter! I had to have a lot of patience with his attitude, many times, but my patience paid off! He came to me, being on the computer, playing games 24/7! It’s been over a year now, where I always showed him, that I loved, and cared for him! I was supportive and gave him some time, so that he could sort out his bitter feelings! Finally, he started coming to his senses, a couple months ago! He has a job, and a girlfriend now, so I see hope of recovery! Patience is a virtue!

@foundryrat743 Thanks very much for your note. My son had me for consistency and love in his life — something ADHD kids require. He did go off his meds for awhile and admits he didn’t do well his first years of college. But! He enlisted in the Army Guard as an E1 and promoted to E6, went on to get his Masters, got commissioned, and is now an Army Captain (Promotable)!!

Your love and patience will continue to gain great results. Take Care.

That is amazing. Well done.
