[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 191461, member: 1436"] I have gotten tired of talking to the brick wall that is my difficult child. He is working now for the first time in years....we are hoping it lasts. But, he can't manage money. He called last night to tell me that he thinks he's overdrawn. My comment, "Oh sorry to hear that." I could have said a thousand things---I have talked about budgeting, I have offered to help write a budget, hold some money, but the "I'm an adult, it's my life, don't tell me..." got in the way. Detachment is not denial---we know what their doing---we just don't try to fix it anymore!!!!! [/QUOTE]
