[QUOTE="sadcat, post: 634634, member: 18334"] Thank you Midwestmom! It has been an emotional 24 + hours. A little background. My son is 22. Clean now for a little over a year, working on rebuilding trust and such. He has always been "high maintenance" in every sense of the word. He doesn't like no for an answer and has demonstrated abusive behaviour in the past. It has taken the last year for me to 'trust' him again, over this last summer. Or maybe I was a dupe. Because all of it fell apart this last week when I said, "No". Police called, lost money - I will not press charges but am considering a restraint order if he attempts to contact me. I think the hardest part for me is the worry he is using again. I will not be party to that. It's been a long day. I know I have trouble with boundaries, I am working on that. [/QUOTE]
