[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 151428, member: 179"] Thank you for all your replies. :) I just want J to understand the complexities of life. Sometimes it's easy...but many times it's really hard and you have to step up to the plate and do whatever is necessary. I think husband feels somewhat guilty about all the years of struggle with J, so he does this to help his own mind. I understand that, but at some point he's got to learn to stand on his own two feet. Heck, we have 3 other children who have never asked for a dime. Actually, the oldest did complain that he couldn't pay his car insurance years ago. My response? Don't drive until you can. A car is a privalege. Could I have sent him the money? Yep, but he learned that he needed to work a bit harder to have that privalege. Abbey [/QUOTE]
