[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 648774, member: 18516"] I don't think you are. You have no control over your stepson or his bio-mom. That is their relationship and it's her choice to do what she's doing. I wonder if she has any clue to the degree in which she enables him and the long term damage it can cause? Have you or your husband every discussed it with her? The longer she continues the more the son will rely on her and she won't be around forever. Bottom line for me to all parents who have been blessed with these difficult adult children is we the parents won't be around forever and then what. What will our little darlings do then??? Better they learn now that mommy and daddy can't take care of them. I don't know that I would interfere, I suppose it would depend on if I or husband got along reasonably well with her that I might mention the above fact. [/QUOTE]
