[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 416959, member: 6705"] First things first. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}. No matter what has happened in the past - we all make mistakes - you must forgive yourself. You made the best choices you could, based on what you knew and you did your best. No guilt for that. Going forward - I agree with many others. Don't give him any more money. Don't enable him. You are better equipped, now, to make different choices. He is old enough that he [B]must[/B] learn to work with the world - because otherwise, the world isn't going to work with him. I don't have any adult children yet... But I've had to do a few of these things in my own home... And it's not pretty, or fun. But the peace of knowing you did everything you could? Is worth it. Don't let the guilt get you down, hon. More hugs... And lots of good thoughts coming your way. [/QUOTE]
