[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 106396, member: 2459"] Do you think it's helped them understand things better? I'm trying to get husband to at least come here and read posts. He's come a long way over the years but I don't think we're both on the same page yet. We have started discussing the future more lately as difficult child is almost 18 and husband makes comments that tell me he's not thinking the way he needs to concerning difficult child. "When he's on his own, he's still going to come here to borrow money" to which I told him, if he needs money for food, I'll buy him food but I'm not giving him money. If he uses it for food, he'd buy ding dongs and ice cream and not real food. That's kind of a simpler comment that he's made but you get the idea. I think I've got him talked into at least reading posts but I told him I would either give him my password or set him up with his own so if he has questions or comments, he can post without waiting on me to be there. It's not really a matter of wanting to with him but more of a matter of time. He works rotten hours, worries about our family and he's also the guardian for his mentally ill mother. Poor guy has a lot going on but I'm trying to convince him that this will help with our family. (And who knows, maybe some of the things could help him with his mother!) [/QUOTE]
