[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 713187, member: 1550"] Making him face consequences for his own bad choices is not abandonment. Not stepping in is hard on us and loving to them, even if they spew hate at us. They are not growing up and we in my opinion need to love them enough to let them be responsible for their own lives and teach them that nobody will take abuse well. Support has nothing to do with money. It is about loving them and suppirting them emotionally if they make good decisions. They are not children anymore that require us to pull them out of their own jams. That is enabling, not support. Do go for help so you can learn better ways of coping and living with these things we choose to do or not do for our adult kids. [/QUOTE]
