[QUOTE="Guidance seeker, post: 726225, member: 22632"] Thank you recovering enabler, it’s hard to get it right all the time and you’ve made me feel much better. When I look back, I have come a long way from the days I was giving him large amounts of money to pay off drug debts - What was I thinking of? Giving him money out of fear of what may happen. Then when I would put up with the stealing from me and him smashing my things. It took me a long time to actually involve the police, even longer to press charges and even longer to put him out and take out a restraining order. Every decision I made to be strong has been incredibly difficult and every time it has proved to be for the best - for me, my husband and daughter if not for him. I’m going to struggle to get through these homeless few days, I remember when i first put him out in April saying I would let him fall so far but not as far as living on the streets but the night before last, he did sleep out for the first time ever and I refused to help. My husband is sick of me constantly talking about my son so I’m trying to curb it. Thank goodness for this forum because I really do need to talk and need feedback too. I appreciate every comment that people take time to write. [/QUOTE]
