[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 250842"] It's okay to be nice...to a certain extent. However, do not play the victim. Always insist on respect in your home. You might go in out of victim mode since you have been through so much. It seems your husband hasn't helped as much as he should. Perhaps couples counseling is in order. You have set guidelines for your son. He is 26. He would be wise to follow them. If he can not...perhaps altnerative arrangement need to be seriously considered. I would also think about getting professional help on this. You've got a lot on your plate. by the way, if your son had to leave college due to a financial situation on your end...so be it. You can't hold your head in shame for this. You have agreed to pay or help pay for college loans. However, he can't be irresponsible. He needs to do his part. He is 26...it is more than time. You continue to agree to help pay for college through loans...you are being more than fair. He is not. in my humble opinion, you are moving in the right direction here...but likely need much support.
