[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 705590, member: 18238"] Don't be guilty, you have NO reason to believe that. There are a lot of similarities between your situation and mine. My wife, Lil, is the enabler although nowhere nearly as bad as your husband is. I've gone through numb to the realization that I do love our son, but can do absolutely nothing to affect the outcome of his life anymore. I'm just waiting for Lil to catch up with me. We aren't on the same page but at least we're usually on the same chapter. For the record, if our son were ever to use the C word face to face with his mom he wouldn't have to worry about what I would do to him. One time he made the mistake of saying to his mom "Why are you being such an effing B*tch about this?!" and she went absolutely ballistic on him. Our son has gotten physical with me a time or two but in hind sight, they were fairly petty incidents. The one time he openly challenged me was during/immediately following the first of these incidents but the police were already there. He was mad enough that he hoped I'd do something stupid. I doubt seriously that he actually thought about swinging on me. He knows I'd clean his clock. [/QUOTE]
