Just an update. It's crunch time. My son missed 3 appointments that would keep his welfare payments going. Part of him keeping his payments was a mental health plan to get him back on track. All he had to do was see a doctor and get counselling with a psychiatric once a week. I thought this was a good thing for him. He did nothing about any of it now he has no cash. I haven't seen him for a month now. My last visit was awful. He smelt and looked like unwashed dirty junkie. I'm refusing to see him until he sorts out his financial situation.
He's ramped up the abusive Face book messages. He's like he is because of me, so he says.
I told him I love him but I am no longer giving him money.
There are so many other things he's done since I last posted. This is just a snap shot. So, tonight I feel terrible. I know I have to take a stand. But the nurturing mother part of me feels bad. The logical part of me says back off and let him sink or swim. I think he'll sink. I can't see him reaching the age of 30.
