[QUOTE="mom58, post: 763726, member: 23925"] I remember asking my dad for money one time in my life. And he told me he did not have a money tree. And did I not just get my income tax return? Needless to say, he did not send money. And I never asked again. Lesson learned. I am glad he did what he did. It made me grow up and figure this money thing out. And I was young 21 had a child 3 years old at the time. The child's father was worthless he moved to Texas to avoid paying child support of 100 bucks a month. Jeez. Now I have a grown son who can't get his act together. We go back and forth between tough love and enabling. Stinks cause ya feel bad for doing tough love and you know giving money is not really helping them do anything but buy drugs. He has managed to work and keep an apartment before so know he can do it. Meth, comes into the picture and life goes to hell in a very short time. Plus he turns into somebody that is paranoid, angry, etc. [/QUOTE]
