[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 694162, member: 15032"] Kathy: My therapist said we should support him with boundaries. I thought we were doing that. I am working really hard not to let him manipulate me. I think I am pretty strong when I talk to him NOW since overdose but I don't FEEL it inside. I am really going to pull away more than I already have. Let him communicate mainly with his father, that is best. He is the stronger one of us. My age reference was mainly that our "kids" are 10 years apart and I can't/wont' do this for ten years. I think you are right. We need to really set firmer boundaries now even though we really thought sending him so far away from us would have been a huge wake up call. I really appreciate your comments as well as everyone else's. He does sound like a spoiled brat when I reread these things.:kickme: [/QUOTE]
