[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 545244"] Sorry to reply twice, but I have to comment on your words. I too have been accused of such - not my my son's therapist - but by his school, his girlfriend & her parents and by my son himself. I hate it. I hate the implication that a parent - a GOOD parent - who has loved and cared for this person all of their lives suddenly is accused of morphing into an uber controlling, empty nest cliche who just wants to control their "adult" child. As if we aren't the people who love them the most and have nurtured them all of their lives and know them the best! And it really bothers me when our "adult" kids are exhibiting valid, multiple, non-benign warning signs that their lives are going off track. I struggle with this a lot. And I feel your pain.
