[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 729004, member: 18958"] I think you have options. Therapy if you want. Setting limits on the support you choose to give, if this feels right. There is an article on detachment on this site that spells out how it would be to detach with love. Some parents find what they need at al anon. The thing is: you are not the one with the problem. Their lifestyle has not one thing to do with you. Almost all of us struggle with boundaries. We feel the effects of their choices. When we come to see this, there can be solace for us. That your two are able bodied and capable could make this easier for you to let this go. It really, really does not have to be your problem. [/QUOTE]
