[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 747376, member: 18516"] Beta, if money alone, or love alone, or the combination of love and money could save our difficult adult children then there would be no need for this site. We each have to come to our point of "enough". When I finally reached my "enough" point it was hard. My son really tried to guilt me into continuing the enabling. "If you really loved me you would help me" "I mean nothing to you" "you're and evil B****" "I wish you were dead", and many other really special sentiments. I have accepted that I will never have the kind of relationship most mothers have with their sons and I'm okay with it. I certainly don't like how things have gone but I cannot hold onto an empty dream. I'm 56 and not getting any younger. My husband and I have dreams of retirement that we are hoping to meet in about 5 years. WE have worked hard for what we have and will never allow our son to ruin it. I like you have given enough. Now it's our time to live for ourselves. [/QUOTE]
