[QUOTE="KFld, post: 406772, member: 2442"] Throwing your child out of your home is the hardest thing I think a parent ever has to do!! I did it with my difficult child 6 years ago when he was only 18 and he admitted for a long time that it was the best thing I ever did for him. Although he has relapsed and is going downhill at the moment, he straightened himself out for a long period of time because I stopped enabling. I remember my first alanon meeting listening to parents talk about how they had thrown their child out, wouldn't give them any money, etc. etc. etc. and I thought, OMG, no matter what my son does I could never throw him out. I think it was about 3 weeks later I did throw him out and it forced him to get the help he needed. I haven't had a lot of time to research exactly what disabilities your difficult child has, but it doesn't look like substance abuse from what I'm reading in this thread, so I'm just speaking of experience as to what worked for a while with my addict difficult child.
