[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 760827, member: 18958"] My son does this too. Just tide him over until his SSI comes. That he's got an appointment at Mental Health or with the doctor, or some other "ticket to ride" BS that he thinks will open the door or our pockets. In our case, it's pure manipulation, a fantasy--I no longer buy-in from hope, but from guilt, fear, and a sense of defeat. I think this is almost worse. This is to say we need to examine whether our motivations are to deal with deeply compromised feelings of our own, or from reality. We are NO LONGER the source of hope and life for our ADULT children. THEY ARE. [/QUOTE]
