[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 78574, member: 1967"] I agree with BBK. That was the reason that I asked if your son was still in school. The only reason I can see for a 22 year old to be still living at home would be if he was going to school. In your case, especially if he is treating you disrespectfully and damaging your home with his outbursts, he needs to find another place to live. I think it is time for the little birdie to fly the nest. If you aren't ready to do that, then at least opt for BBK's idea of setting down guidelines and sticking to them. Your son is treating you like this because he can get away with it. I speak from experience here. We finally had to make our difficult child leave our home when she was 20 (that was the second time ~ the first time we foolishly believed her story that she wanted to change her life and then we found drugs and alcohol hidden in her room). It took tough love to do it but it was the best things we could have done. Our difficult child is living on her own, working, paying her own bills, and has gone back to college full time. Best of all, she treats us lovingly and respectfully when we are with her. I never thought that would happen during the dark years. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
