[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 751132, member: 15032"] JayPee just have to say that I am constantly amazed at the growth you have experienced since coming to this forum! Wow you are giving great advice!!! So very happy for you that you are on the right track. It takes time and it is very very difficult. Terry I agree with Copa one million percent and the other posters. Your son has to figure this out. When he even acts like he's going to ask you for something you need to remind him that he is a GROWN man and that he has to figure this out. And don't you feel guilty for ONE second!!! It is very generous of you to give up your life to raise his three children. That is enough!! This reminds me that I do not want my son that just turned 24 today to live with us any longer than he has to!! He was our former Difficult Child but we set boundaries and got tough - it took MANY years - and now he is finally doing what he needs to do. Oh and this is all by the grace of God and his 13 month faith based program. I would never not give credit where credit is due. Terry stay strong and do not even think of doing any more for your son. As Eliz said, it is NOT helping when we do for our adult children what THEY can DO for themselves! [/QUOTE]
