[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 565941, member: 13542"] Payla, I'm sorry. Gosh, I know how you feel. My difficult child was arrested and it was in the local paper. I live in a small town too and the CFO where I work gave me the article which featured my difficult child. Ugh. It is embarrassing, I know. I think the important difference is that you've changed. He may go on and on with his behavior, however, you've made enormous strides in your behavior, setting strong boundaries and being true to yourself. I found that over time, when they no longer receive the result they are looking for, they stop. I don't know where it will end for your son, however, hopefully you will get to a place where the distance from him allows you to live a normal, happy and what I always hope for, "[I]uneventful"[/I] life. Hang in there Payla, you're doing a wonderful job and along the way it is tiring, embarrassing and feelings of resentment are par for the course too.... I know............(((HUGS))))...[I](turn your phone off[/I]) [/QUOTE]
