[QUOTE="MarieCS, post: 639252, member: 18464"] I did not hear from my 43 year old homeless son for a few weeks. My punishment? Then I got a text of a new phone # with no name attached which son #2 confirmed is son#1's new #. So the messages are starting again. "Leaving CO. I won't bother you anymore, just letting you know." I responded "Just because I'm not sending you$ anymore doesn't mean I don't want to hear from you. Where are you going?" Response: "Hollywood or The Keys so I don't freeze to death. I relied on that $ for food but I'll figure something out. Saving for bus ticket. I'll be homeless wherever I go tho. Gonna be 1 degree tonight, as in 32 below freezing." Ok, so I guess the manipulation is starting again, right? I'm supposed to feel horrible that my son is freezing and hungry and send more $? Honestly, I'm so conflicted. I don't want to cut off all communication but every time I try just to converse I end up feeling guilty because all he does is tell me how horrible things are. So now that I've responded to him I feel back to square one. By the way, I told him this move to CO from Hollywood was a bad idea but he didn't listen. Now he's stuck there and cold and hungry. I KNEW this would happen, but I couldn't prevent it. I'm just miserable all over again. [/QUOTE]
