[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 651329, member: 1550"] While I never helped my kid out either once she turned eighteen, and she did quit and turn it around, I have find THIS quoted sentence curious. How in the world does what a separate human being from you, be it a stranger or your son, "shame" anybody else? Embarass, maybe. I get that. My son has embarassed me many times, especially while he was still little and supposed to be acting "cute" because he was so young...and he acted mean and other moms yelled at me for how he hurt their kid. I WAS embarassed that he could not just behave himself and had to always create drama, sometimes in places I'd rather he didn't. But I never felt shamed by his behavior. I have never done his behavior. I never would. I think it is healthier to remember that we all different people and not responsible for what anyone else does, even if it's a child of ours. Sure, it CAN be embarassing, but I don't really see how it shames us all. At least, the way I look at it, and maybe I'm wrong, what a family member does has nothing to do with the rest of us. I find this an unusual concept. [/QUOTE]
