[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 696341, member: 18958"] I only hope that my son has the capacity or gains it to see what the costs to him are of his way of living. Perhaps, just perhaps it will motivate him further to listen to us and to be motivated to an even greater extent to do what it takes to live harmoniously with us or around us. Because for the 5 or so months near us, going as far back as almost a year, there was nothing--no police, no hospital. Things are marching along I guess as they needed to. I could not, I see that,have tolerated anymore his damaging property in frustration. He has got to rein this in, one way or another, do what it takes to get control.And I know I was enabling by allowing him to use his money to self-medicate with marijuana. He can spend his money as he chooses, but I control how much he pays to be in a space I control. I am having a little bit of hope again. Or maybe a little less fear. And we decided upon an end date for work. The maximum I will work is Sept. 2nd. I am thrilled to finally allow myself an exit place. I am uncertain how I will do even 5 weeks more, but I will remember what I have committed to. 5 more weeks, max. Thank you all. [/QUOTE]
