[QUOTE="BackintheSaddle, post: 615760, member: 17503"] Thank you all so much....it's nice to find people who understand-- my friends don't get it either (though they are there for me)...it's hard to believe that charming kid is as mean as I tell people but I know what's true...I got up and planned my day to bake and listen to Christmas music and really felt empowered by what you all told me-- it is hard not to second guess myself particularly since my parents are on 'his side' but I know my son better than anyone and you're all right, he won't be able to hold it together very long- I've seen that he's deteriorating...I just hope he doesn't hurt himself or someone else in the process of hitting bottom...he text me to come get some stuff today (he didn't even get clothes when he left) so we let him come...put a cramp in my day of cooking and got me and my husband all nervous...we left for him to come and now maybe we won't have to deal with him for awhile... I did decide that I have to give him something for Christmas...it's a holiday that I usually go overboard for and he knows it...I'm not going to give him money as planned but filling up a stocking of things he needs (cologne, etc) and giving him the gift my husband got him (tools)...I have a small gift for his girlfriend and each of my parents that I'm going to give them too...I plan to pack it all up in a box and drop it at their doorstep late tonight so it's there in the morning...I can't not give him something and live with myself...it's just a part of 'me' that I want to keep in that Christmas is a special time, a time for love and family, and I can't not let him know I do love him in spite of everything Thanks for understanding...going to go do some baking now!...;-) [/QUOTE]
