[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 708489, member: 15032"] JRB Welcome and sorry you have to be here. I second the advice above. Get therapy so you can establish FIRM boundaries. They are for HIS own good as for yours. We had to do tough love with our son who is now 21. God it was hard. I'm still doing it. He wanted to come for a visit last week and I said NO. I'm not ready. He's not ready. I need to see more growth. It could be years before we have him home for a visit. We do see him and we do talk to him and we do help him financially as long as he is going to school, working and keeping his nose clean. No offense but we did this so we wouldn't have a 30 year old sitting on our couch demanding stuff. We saw THAT in our future. It's time for you to stop enabling this grown man. You can do it.
