[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 645174, member: 18366"] I would tell you to step back and stay "done" only on the condition that Lil tell him what adjudication is and how important it is that he gets that covered. What he "chooses to do" is still up to him. Yes, I am sure he is counting on that as well. There is no way to be part way "DONE". Personally I find it more objectionably they he would stoop to stealing from his own family, but that is just me - and yes I have been through it but worse. (And why I feel it is worse) As much as I feel for both of you, that your son is pushing on every single boundary that you have ever placed on him, I think done means done. I was thinking about it earlier - is it not the whole mashed potato incident all over again only with an adult this time? No matter how much expertise Lil has on law, do you really believe that if you step in and save him "this once" he isn't going to keep refusing to learn (eat the mashed potatoes?) What I think is every fiber of him is not going to take "we are done" or even worse he doesn't care or can't be bothered to think it out or who the eff knows infinitude? To be done, you have to be done. I know it frightens Lil, but isn't that the point? It will frighten Lil to the point of not being done, it's the lawyer in her. She wants to re-write the injustice here, while I hear Jabber saying there likely is none: The best you can hope for is adjudication - but it isn't likely to help you any the next time, and just as there was ongoing theft in the home, the world is now his home and you can't save nobody from themselves (intentional bad grammar) [/QUOTE]
