[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 644119, member: 13542"] I've read along with you guys Lil and you've effectively written an excellent chapter in the stages of letting go of a young adult difficult child. You've done all the right things in my opinion, ladened with our parental desires to support and nurture. You've given him a really good chance to prove himself and you've informed him of your boundaries. I really think that's as good as it gets. Much of it we do for our own peace of mind, but that's part of it too. There isn't a straight and narrow road which always works, it's the insane push and pull and back and forth that is so exhausting because we have to walk through it, we can't just leap ahead. June will be here fast enough and in the meantime, you'll continue learning and growing and figuring out the next step as it presents itself. You and Jabber have gone through a lot, I hope you can rest a little now while he is safe and sound and resume as normal a reality as possible. You guys deserve some fun and some rest. [/QUOTE]
