[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 554505, member: 2211"] Hello and welcome, At this point you can't make him do anything...he's an adult and will do as he wants. All you can do is decide what you will and will not do. Often, we parents think we are helping when in fact we are hurting our kids by making decisions for them, saving them from trouble, etc. I think it's important for your own self preservation and sanity to take care of yourself and give your son the proverbial rope... Seek out an al anon meeting and learn how to detach with love and not anger or fear, to take care of your own needs and live day to day without obsessing over your son. Hugs, it's not easy but at least you're not hiding your head in the sand about it. [/QUOTE]
