[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 645003, member: 1550"] Yep. I do think it's a good idea to cut off all the fun goodies at home if the adult kid won't leave. I just don't like not leaving toilet paper...lol. How fast the adult child would leave if there was no internet, no cell phone, no television, no money, no car...yep, they'd rather sleep in an alley. I had no idea adult kids knew about tenant laws until I came here. My kids sure didn't nor did I. Also, going through their things in their room and turning drugs into the cops etc. would probably work and I'd probably do it as a last resort, especially if the adult child was violent or stealing from me and would not leave. And, um, nobody even smokes cigarettes under my roof, let along smokes pot, uses other drugs, etc. I started out being a very wishy-washy mom who ran to school to tell off the teachers anytime they complained about my troublemaking son. I have ended my journey, having taken a loooooooooooooong road, not excusing people, leaving the few of my DNA family still around, and not putting up with any abuse, even from my adult kids. And my life has become peaceful, serene and full of love. You plunge the toxins from your life and you are suddenly refreshed and clean. it is sad when a toxin is one of your beloved children and fortunately I had not had to cut off my kids. But I don't really think you have a relationship anyway if one is abusive until that person learns how to treat other people. So largely I agree with the article. I've been at this a loooooooooooong time and come a looooooooooooooong way from that doormat who had everybody's footprints all over me to now, where I control who can be in my life. Why does it take so long???? [/QUOTE]
