[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 649154, member: 18238"] What is that old saying? Give a man a fish and he eats for a day but teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. Unfortunately we are dealing with those who don't want to learn and often don't acknowledge the need. Excellent post Cedar because the curse of enabling is VERY similar to that of addiction. By the time its bad enough that you notice the problem, the behavior has been going on for years and is difficult to change. Hopeandjoy, he and his bio-mom are both adults who will make their own life choices. You cant make those decisions for them so don't beat yourself up over the fact that, at least most of the time, those decisions are beneficial to you. Remember, Not My Circus, Not My Monkey! [/QUOTE]
