[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 730549, member: 18958"] He is pulling out all of the stops to scare you. He is using the magic words he knows you want to hear. (like work.) I would bet most are lies. I would not be sure these are payday loans. This might even be extortion by him. Or he could have drug debts. The thing is where will it ever stop if you pay. I know how scary this is. And how horribly it hurts to set a boundary by saying no, especially when you fear for them. But think of it this way: what is in his best interest? By that I mean, what will bring him closer to being accountable and responsible. A good person. He is a man. But he is your child. We have to choose where we stand. Do we respond to the baby he no longer is. Or the man he must be. A diagnosis is not a reason to not be a good and responsible person. That is what I think. [/QUOTE]
