Your son is not employed or going to school. Your son is not compliant in regards to family rules. Your son is making the atmosphere in your home very stressful. Your son refuses to commit himself to recovery. YOU are enabling your son's aforementioned behaviors. YOU are totally enmeshed in your son's life. YOU are lacking in healthy boundaries. How's that for starters? I hope you can move in a different direction stands ... I really do. With all due respect. [/QUOTE]
