[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 695932, member: 19522"] SWOT, when I was at work and consumed with my two, my poor work friend would listen sympathetically, but eventually told me "I think you need to go see a therapist." (Not that you should say this to your son.....) So, I did. The point is, he is using you as his sounding board, his therapist, his go to, then verbally abusing you and it is not fair. When did we get to this point where adult children do not care that the woes of their lives spilling out all over the map, negatively affect their parent? Good, you put your foot down. There is help out there for him. Period. He is blaming you and venting and walking all over you. YUCK! He is angry at what is happening, and you are nearest the whipping post. I am sorry for the shock of this. You are a wonderful person and have supported him throughout. I am reminded of the quote [IMG]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/89/0e/b3/890eb3471a5dbd4a03be5421441a0836.jpg[/IMG] By putting your foot down, you are declaring your value! YOU MATTER!!! (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
