[QUOTE="nlj, post: 644151, member: 17650"] Financial handouts to difficult children are not helpful and often make things worse. I wish I'd stopped the financial handouts a long time before I actually stopped. Far too late. In a way you are in a stronger position than a lot of us in your situation, because you have an added strong economic reason for stopping the money and making him stand on his own two feet, which will push you to act - you'll look back eventually and know that this is one of the best things you could have done to help him grow up and take responsibility for his own life.
