[QUOTE="Hopeful parent, post: 758672, member: 21585"] Copabanana, what you have said is very true. Especially "that part of the craziness and drama arising from my attempts to control things that are not my business." This is a lesson I need to learn. It is hard for me to think of it as not walking away from my son though, because that is what I have decided to do. He is so controlled by his girlfriend that I can't have anything to do with him. I actually believe that I may not ever see him or my grandson again, and I am trying to accept this. I have realised that while ever he is involved with his partner and her enabling mother we can never reach him. His girlfriend feeds his tormented brain with nastiness and hate towards us, because we are the ones who have stopped giving them money. Yet his girlfriends family keep paying their rent and giving them what they want. I have been reading your comments on some of the other peoples threads as well and what you say has been helping me to make the decision to step off this merry go round. Thankyou. I do not know your story. Where are you at with your son? Has your situation with your son improved? As I read others stories I am amazed at the similarities in the behaviour of our children. It is unbelievable that there are so many similar stories. It makes me wonder what has gone wrong with our world today for this to happen to our young people. [/QUOTE]
