[QUOTE="Tired out, post: 746081, member: 23103"] Over dramatic. Ben can be like that too. That's when I want to yell GROW THE HECK UP! EEEK. Glad mine doesn't do that. I can write a text forget to send and it is still sitting there and my screen shows it as a draft. (Verizon/Samsung Galaxy) . Maybe you sent it when you put the phone down, before the screen locked--that is easy to do. There was a situation on a tv show not too long ago about a mom and enabling her son. The big question--Mom--are you doing this for your son or to make yourself feel better? to calm your own anxiety. Son needs to grow-up and Mom HAD to stop. Period. She had to decide to stop herself. She was addicted to helping BUT by helping son didn't have to take responsibility to help himself. Copa- I need your input-- a couple of days ago (we had lots of snow) I picked Adam up from his day program. As I was pulling out I got stuck (wheelchair van has low clearance streets not cleaned very well) anyhow a man was walking by and stopped to help us, he told me what to do and pushed me out quickly.. I am pretty sure he stays at the Mission which is 3 blocks or so down from day program. Anyhow--yesterday I saw him hanging out with 3 other men (they are probably in their late 30's). There is a decent coffee shop within walking distance- do you think it is ok to get him a gift card for the coffee shop? (I don't want to get it for grocery store too many not ok things he can buy) Coffee shop has all sorts of sandwiches and beverages (no booze or cigarettes, I wouldn't want to contribute to that stuff). Would you be ok with someone doing that for J? [/QUOTE]
