[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 701172, member: 355"] I'm sorry your son keeps doing this to you, Lil. I'm in the same boat. My husband was not able to handle the calls/requests from our daughter. I now handle that part of it. It's hard because I am like you and FOG keeps me enabling our daughter. She's on her "journey" by bicycle through Asia. She has been posting on FB about her travels. She wants money to eat but in her video she says she can't wait for 5pm when she can buy beer (in Thailand the stores are prohibited from selling alcohol during certain times of the day). And now she has another 'stomach virus'. Next, she'll be asking for money for a visit to a clinic and medications. I know the cycle. I'm getting tired of it. I have caller ID at work and home. I'm starting to ignore the calls more and more often. Then she'll email and get nasty. But we can't keep doing this. If I were you, I would block my son for a while. RN0441 has great advice. Let him call your husband (if he has to wait until the end of the day, so be it). It will give you some respite. Then, when you're able, you can unblock. Hugs and prayers to you. [/QUOTE]
