[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 677237, member: 1550"] This is what I thought and what I meant. I am harsher in my opinion than Copa. I really think that if this is what your son is going to do to your family, he needs to go. Also, I feel that there are many young parents and most seem more adequate than your son...his youth and t he child's disability are no excuse for negligence. And his not getting his son Christmas presents show what is in his heart...he is still a very selfish boy deep down. Most young parents are eager and excited for their child at Christmas. What parent doesn't want to see his kid excited by his presents under the Christmas tree? I don't see that as normal affection. As for your spoiling him, what does he think he is if not spoiled? Did he ask you to forgo his Christmas presents? I doubt it. This is a hard decision for you. Think about it, talk about it, let your son be a man (he is a man) and take the consequences when he is wrong. That, of course, is JMO. I hope this isn't too harsh, but your description of your son's behavior really made me angry for you. He is a man, not a child. How DARE he threaten your marriage and the rest of your family, sober or not. Ever hear of a dry drunk? Not saying your son is one, but perhaps it would help you and hubby if you attended Al-Anon to help both of you cope with an alcoholic who is not drinking but is still acting out. [/QUOTE]
