My son just pulled that with me. We went to a concert with friends and he texted saying "glad you're out having a good time while I'm in here" (here being IOP). That used to bother me and I felt guilty but not any longer. I told him that we work hard and yes, we are enjoying ourselves as much as we can!! It really is an amazing gift when you can see it for what it really is.
When he stops blaming us and laying on the guilt trip, I'll know he's ready to change.
