[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 627264, member: 1550"] I went to Codependents Anonymous for three years. I never learned so much about myself and my reactions to others in my life. It changed me for the better. If they have one near you, GO. If not, go to Al-Anon or Nar-Anon and see what you can get out of it. Or see a private therapist. It is too easy to slip unless you have a support system. My son was never in jail, but he was homeless. I doubt he thought much about how to change. I agree with COM. He thought mostly about how to find somebody to mooch off of. Some grown kids really do have "lightbulb" moments when homeless or in jail. Most are only thinking about how to get around the system and get what they want from their parents int he meantime (yep, they love that free$$$ and the tears we cry). [/QUOTE]
