This is my first post. I am so sorry. We just asked my son to leave and gave him 4 weeks. When we did he cut himself out of family photos and destroyed sime things by punching holes and whacking them with hammers. At that point we said he had to leave right away. I hope your son doesn't do this, I would have a 3rd party there for your own protection. I was literally scared for my life and made my husband change all our locks. This was one month ago today.
I think if you feel you need help, get it! However, I have learned that most people don't get help until they realize they have a problem. We always had a strained relationship with our son, but he suddenly just started to refuse to even talk to us, pay rent, accept help or anything. He said we didn't support him though he lived here free with all the benefits of laundry, shower, Wi-Fi, etc. for free the entire time he was in school full time. I suspect he might suffer from some sort of mental illness. I have given him over to God and my life goes on. I have other children who love me and I know I'm not the best parent, but I don't deserve this. I'm sure if you're on here, you're a good parent, too. Sometimes people just make bad choices and they don't get help/get better until they acknowledge that themselves. I pray it goes well with you and your son.
