[QUOTE="overwhelmed since76, post: 636952, member: 18290"] I usually do not make comments because I am still in a very vulnerable place myself right now. My difficult child is 38, has a mild intellectual disability and is an alcoholic. In august he went on a 30 day self destruct mode because his girlfriend went to jail. I won't go into too much detail again, as I've already posted my dilemma. Anyway, I absolutely know EXACTLY how you feel. My son will be doing some jail time for a dui. it won't be a question of bailing him out, but he will cry and act like a baby. Also, since he lost his job, and had no income, he is going to be begging me for money. He may become homeless, and this will be the first time. He just moved out of our home last year. He was breaking rules and coming home with alcohol on his breath. My husband says he is not allowed to move home. We've reached the point where we have decided to let him hit bottom. It is going to be very hard to do. I know how you feel...believe me I do. Let's you and I stick together and tough this out. It seems that we are both kind of at the same place right now....struggling. I also had some health issues recently, (pulmonary embolism). Mid west mom is correct....he never cares how much he upsets me...if he does, he certainly doesn't show it. [/QUOTE]
