[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 728810, member: 4152"] Leana, Elizabeth and others...very quick note. First off, having an adult child like this is very taxing. If at all possible, best to get counseling for yourself. Support groups like Families Anonymous are often great. Comraderie and good Local input/contacts. And keep posting here...this is a wonderful and supportive bunch Read whatever you can get your hands on re detachment. If you ever find yourself in need of pulling away in a major way, you might consider a good food store gift card to help now and again as st least this type of help is likely to go toward food. You can provide this fir emergency purposes only. We have one meant for college kids (I think). Duplicate cards , one for us and one for her. You keep one. If she is in dire need and scts appropriately, we can take our card and put some money on it and it will show up on both cards. You do this at the food store. I’m a tiny bit more giving with food , although I’m conflicted about it. Give an inch and these kids will take a mile. [/QUOTE]
