[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 637278, member: 17269"] I'm sorry this is happening to you! I don't know why people feel free to weigh in on how adult, experienced, caring parents choose to relate to their adult child. Even when my kids were teens, there was a lot of "you let her do THAT? (smoke, walk home at night alone, leave school early)...no duh I don't LET her. Turns out you can't really control other people, and a lot of people don't have to learn that lesson on their own because the people around them control themselves. God bless them. You could try bursting into tears any time anyone offers helpful well meaning advice, criticism, or asks questions. It would be an entertaining process anyway. Hugs to you, Echo [/QUOTE]
