[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 588717, member: 15812"] Alanon has been a lifeline for me. They have phone meetings if anyone doesn't know. Google Alanon phone meetings. Karen, i get he isn't an adult. Mine isn't either. But adult in the eyes of the law. keep in mind how resourceful they are. They don't think as we do. Mine can find new ppl all the time and talk them into doing things for him. I would guess yours can too. i try to pick my battles. For example, difficult child had a temp filling and a root canal. He didn't go back and get the crown. Why? Cause he isn't in pain and I didn't remind him. Why should I volunteer to pay a pile of cash? on the other hand, I do monitor his medications and therapy appts. As he is living here (sort of...lol) then that directly effects me. I want him on those medications. I need him on those medications. we all have to decide where we put a boundary and where we walk away. :smile: [/QUOTE]
