[QUOTE="Mamacat, post: 701854, member: 20962"] Everything you describe is what my life was like. My 40 something daughter and 2 granddaughters lived with us. I too was caught in the middle until my husband (her sterpdad) threw her out. I didn't have the guts to do it. At first I was mad at him, but now I know it was a good thing. It doesn't get any better. Enabling just goes on and on and on. It sounds like your still fairly young. I'm 71. Set the boundaries now. It's scary I know, but I sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if I had done it long ago or what her life would have been like if I hadn't continually rescued her. It will happen eventually. In my opinion better sooner than later. Alanon is good, also codependents anonymous. Blessings and love to you [/QUOTE]
