[QUOTE="Worriedsick, post: 678417, member: 19824"] Like you would do with a very young child. Because in a sense they are like very young children. That is the problem. Yes, I need to take small steps with my 18 year old. He feels entitled and Hasnt talked to me in 2 months.I know I've enabled him and made excuses for him all his life. He's been in a very depressed state for the past 3 months but has been getting out a bit with friends and enrolled in community college for a few classes last week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he sticks with it. He is not contributing to house chores. I have not enforced it yet. I feel that I've been through 3 months of emotional h@ll, and want to give myself a little break. I'm just so drained. I just started back to work last week ( after 3 months off) to begin to feel a little more "normal". [/QUOTE]
