[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 747335, member: 18516"] Hi Exhausted. I'm so sorry for what you have been dealing with. I'm really glad you found us here. I think you are doing the right thing. You have tried to help your son but he doesn't want "help" he just wants to be enabled. He wants to continue to live his life the way he chooses but within the confines of your home. Do not feel bad about him leaving your home. You are not kicking him out, you are liberating him so that he can live his life on his terms. I doubt that a judge would say this. I'm pretty sure most judges get sick and tired of seeing parents having to deal with difficult adult children. So you did some enabling, so did I. I enabled to the point that I bought a house for my son to live in. We all have done what we thought was "helping" when in reality we were enabling. There are no easy answers for any of us as we traverse this crazy journey with our difficult adult children. Bottom line, you need to do what you have to in order for you to feel safe in your own home. Our homes should be our sanctuary. Glad you posted! Please let us know how things are going. We care.
