[QUOTE="Lil, post: 653796, member: 17309"] I have done that. Not to not feel "guilty" necessarily, but just because I was so worn down from the constant stress...it was easier than listening to my son gripe and shout or beg or slam things or whatever. [I]"Its such a little thing, why not just give him what he wants? It's a small price to pay for peace."[/I] Some was "guilt" though...it's hard to sit down to dinner when your son has called and told you he has no food. So yeah...then I've given in and spent money on him....Of course I regret it now and mine is only 20! I'm very sorry you are going thru this. You've found a good place here for people to advise or just understand. One thing, I really would call the police on the handgun. I know you don't want to - we never reported any of our missing items, including the $700 cash that caused us to put our son out last October. He was still only 19. But the day he left I turned to my husband (Jabberwockey on this board) and said, "Check your guns." They are the ONE thing I would have called the police about. Thank God we didn't have to...they were all accounted for. [/QUOTE]
