[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 568050"] I am with the rest of you. I could never cut my difficult child out of my life, disown him, or stop loving him. He is my son and I love him no matter what.... but part of loving them is not enabling them in my opinion and finding that balancing point can be very hard at times!!! And I love him but I dont always like him very much!!! So for me it is to keep letting him know I love him but like you said setting those boundaries AND for me at this point it is taking a step back, keeping my mouth shut and not judging him. Keeping my mouth shut is sometimes the hardest part but I have come to realize that often what i say is not helpful to him... but loving and accepting him (not necessarily what he does) makes a huge difference.
