[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 523109, member: 13542"] Welcome Benny. I am so sorry for the issue's you are dealing with with your sons. I am glad you found this site. I don't have your particular experience with my daughter, however, I think you did the right thing in having both sons out of your house. I agree with Keista that getting some therapy or help of some kind for you and your husband sounds like the next step. This is not my area of expertise, but I know other parents here have had to deal with violence and drugs with their kids and they will have more advise for you. It seems that you should be able to get a restraining order to keep them away from your home and from you. There should be some legal options which you can take to protect your family. And, I would also like to see you and your husband get on the same page and form a united front. This sounds dangerous. I'm sorry, I know this is very hard for you, and it's been a very long road. As you will begin to see, most of us here have been on those hard roads and at some point, we stop and begin to make hard choices and take our lives back. Their behavior is clearly not okay and you have to develop strict boundaries around that behavior and don't waver from them. Those of us here have had to let go of our adult children and allow them to find their own way. We are all in various stages of that detachment process. it's tough, but necessary. You will find like minded kind souls here to help you find your way. I believe you are doing the right thing. Keep posting and let us know what you are up to, how you feel.
