[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 482408"] Nancy, I too think you did the right thing.... I mean we want our difficult children to know we support them while they are in recovery and helping out here and there is not an out of the ordinary thing for young adult her age..... if she is losing her sobriety i suspect you will know that soon enough and then of course you would need to take a hard line....but at this point as far as you know she is sober. I know with my difficult child we were willing to help out with money while he was in the sober house.... and he did scam us for extra cash which we did fall for... but of course we found out and so now there is no way we are giving him money directly.... but that was one more way he had to learn that his actions affect him. Now we do give grocery money to the sober house to dole out to him..... but we will not give him cash directly. TL [/QUOTE]
