[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 752472, member: 19832"] Setting boundaries is healthy and a big step, but it doesn't mean you won't feel the heartache and stress of having a son off the rails. No one deserves to be verbally abused. My 34 year old difficult son was very verbally abusive and intimidating, and I felt sick to my stomach often when I knew I would have to deal with him. Just hearing the phone ring triggered panic. I will not let him live with me, and due to his oppositional nature he loses jobs, housing, etc. and has been homeless a number of times. It hurts, but our sons have to find their own way. You are right to set the boundaries and to take care of yourself. Keep posting. My thoughts are with you. [/QUOTE]
