[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 617352, member: 13542"] Oh boy Upallnight, I hear your frustration and anger and we here sure know how that feels! I'm sorry this is happening now. Is there a way you can pay for the truck and get it put in your name and then sell it? At least that way it won't ruin your credit. It seems pretty likely that your son will continue to not pay his bills so that way husband won't be responsible for it. I have a 41 year old who "lives in the moment" and over time I had to stop all payments, all help, everything..........it was overwhelming me emotionally and financially so I knew I had to stop all of it across the board. If you haven't already, it may be helpful if you read the article on detachment at the bottom of my post. They are adults and therefore they are responsible for their choices. Perhaps you and husband can talk about it and make the decision to stop all financial support for your son, no matter what it is, the free ride is over. I hope you feel a little better today.............wishing you peace of mind and sending you big hugs.......... [/QUOTE]
