[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 696081, member: 17720"] Oh, Colleen. I am so sorry. I agree with your decision to take him off the insurance, and I am glad he is not in your home. Beyond that he is an adult. You cannot control his actions or his poor decisions, only limit your involvement in them or their consequences. I do hope you are able to get out with your old friends tonight. Have a little wine, be among friends, take your mind off of this. Because you can't control it. Not one bit. And it is not your fault. Not one bit. Should the conversation turn to brag-a-thons, just keep it light ("Difficult Child has his own place now, he is finding his way in the world," etc.), then pivot back to them. I am just so sorry, Colleen. My heart dropped when I read your post. How frightening and disappointing for you. [/QUOTE]
