[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 632778, member: 17269"] Young Mama, read what MWM said and take it to heart. She is wise. If your ways of trying to fix and please were going to work...well, they would have by now. My parents are divorced. I am too. It is a bit sad for my kids...but I have 3 pcs and one difficult child. A lot of people on the board have both PCs and difficult children...some have only difficult children. There is no knowing what causes that...all I know for surei s that I don't have the power to make a easy child, and I don't have the power to make a difficult child. And you don't either. Does your son have a diagnosis? Does he use drugs? He sounds like both those things may be true...it doesn't change what I think you need to do (detach from him) but sometimes it helps with the conversation. Also..stop doing his laundry. Like, yestarday. I haven't done any of my kids' laundry in 4 years (my youngest is 16). We will look for your posts tomorrow. Good job looking for some help, both here and from professionals.
