[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 562617, member: 3907"] BKS, I agree wholeheartedly with the advice that everyone else has given you. The day I realized that my difficult child and I could never live under the same roof again was monumental, and involved family upheaval, criminal charges for difficult child and then a few years of misery. But, we have stuck to our guns. difficult child had to earn back the privilege of coming for visits, let alone staying overnight. He has gotten much better over the years since he's been out of the house because he knows he'll be out the door like a shot if he crosses the line. We used to have the house on complete lockdown the last time he lived here. Locks on every door, a padlock on the fridge, a second fridge locked away and padlocked, medications locked in the trunk of husband's car, etc. etc. The last time difficult child came home for a short visit, we didn't have to engage any of the locks. (Although all of them are still in place and I still have all the keys). With time it will get better, but you have to hold your ground now. [/QUOTE]
