[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 641315, member: 1967"] Hi stressedmama. Your difficult child is 32. I think that you are way too involved in her life right now. Are you financially supporting her? I had to learn this the hard way. My difficult child is 29 and my husband and I had to finally just stop supporting her financially and let her fall. I have cut off contact for the time being but she does talk with husband. Surprisingly, since we finally stopped paying her her rehab, halfway houses, rent, food, phone, etc., she has managed to find herself a job and a place to live. We don't ask questions about where she is living since it is not our responsibility to keep a roof over her head. It took me a year of therapy to be able to get to this point. It is an amazing feeling to finally be off the roller coaster. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
