[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 674880, member: 19832"] Isn't it ironic that despite the bad behavior of our loved ones that we end up feeling like we're the guilty ones. The acronym FOG (fear, obligation, and guilt) really helps me to see what is being done to me in an effort by my adult child to get me to rescue him. Others may not understand your choices, but those who truly love and care about you will understand, and that's what counts. My son is pressuring me to take him in when he is released from prison. It breaks my heart to say no, but I have to, no matter how hard. He really does not care about his impact on others, including me and those he professes to love. Taking care of yourself does is the healthy thing to do, and do so, in the long run, is the best model for your daughter. [/QUOTE]
