[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 341736, member: 2315"] Where were you at 26 years of age? I'm guessing a long way further along the road of being a responsible adult than your difficult child. I for one was married with two children living well on an income that fell below the poverty level but no one would know because I was a terrific homemaker and budgeter. husband was working on and almost done with his master's degree. I find it usefult o remember where we were at their age when dealing with our difficult child's. I don't advocate saying it to them rather just thinking it to ourselves. That way we realize that what we are asking of them is not selfish or mean but merely a parent's reasonable life expectations for our grown child. -RM [/QUOTE]
