[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 549255, member: 13558"] (((hugs))) It is extremely hard! My difficult child is 34yo and I feel as if I have dealt with this my entire life. After a 2 year relationship from hell with another 37yo difficult child he was conning me for money to finish school so he could get a job. He was telling me he was homeless, needed money for food, blah... blah... blah... I fell for it and found out it was a lie and they were using the money to party. I finally found out when I had to call the police to get the 37yo difficult child, that I had met once, to stop harrassing me. Then he really was homeless!! It hurts BUT they will use you and manipulate you and leave you in financial ruins, and feel no remorse. I have had my difficult child in many programs and now it is up to him. He is presently working and lives in another state. THANK GOD! It still hurts BUT I no longer feel responsible for his many life screw ups. You can only control your life not anothers, even your child. He is an adult and has been for many years - for some reason they simply do not learn or want to be responsible. If you don't let him go you will be supporting him for the rest of his life. This is a free online book that has helped along with many other books, and of course counseling. Reading the posts from this forum and the substance abuse forum is a great help.
