[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 626991, member: 1550"] Wow. Recovering Enabler, you did it again. Between you and COM and Scent and Echo and JKF and the entire wisdom of the board, I laugh and cry and still learn because it is of course still painful to have a son who is 36 and so different, in a bad way, from other successful middle age young men...so willing to use and abuse. Put in the context of looking back to that age myself, I shudder. I was so far from living with either parent or depending on them and would never have wanted to live with them...even if they had been nice. I mean, our adult kids seem to shun adult independence that my easy child kids have started fighting for in their teens. I want to thank my board therapists once again for all their collective wisdom. If I forgot to name you, trust me, I still value what you share. It helps keep me strong...I remember that if I give 36 an inch, he will take a mile or ten miles. You are all so incredibly smart and strong. [/QUOTE]
