[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 617922, member: 13542"] Hi LS, you may want to read the article on detachment at the bottom of my post. For your kids who have emotional or mental issues, you might look online for NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, they have chapters everywhere with excellent courses for parents and resources for our kids. Setting boundaries and house rules with consequences will help, along with identifying what it is you want, what you are willing to do and what you are not willing to do. You have to be clear in what you want the kids to adhere to, what the rules are and then enforce them. There have to be clear consequences too, so they know what to expect if they break the rules.........you can't be inconsistent or give in or your word and your rules will mean nothing. Do not allow your sons to disrespect you. How you allow yourself to be treated is how you end up being treated, don't allow it. Keep posting it helps. [/QUOTE]
