[QUOTE="Elizabethm, post: 710937, member: 21683"] I just read your story and you are right....not only are our children similar but so are you and I. It seems we both are afraid of hurting our children for fear of worse. I keep telling myself that I'm being a terrible mom by giving in and giving him Money but then I feel like a terrible mom thinking he's out with his friends and has no money to even eat with them. It's an endless cycle of dysfunction and guilt. I told him yesterday no more money until he makes efforts to help himself. 2 hours later he had a job interview set up. Sounds great but I've been down this path so many times in the past month that I can't get my hopes up. He has worked at 3 places in the past month without getting paid because he is afraid to go back. He's like an intern in the restaurant business. Lol I believe until he gets medications and therapy he won't able to keep a job. [/QUOTE]
