[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 746840, member: 19522"] I’m so sorry for your troubles with your son, Acacia. I think going no contact is more than reasonable when our health is so badly affected by our adult addicted children. It is a constant effort to keep away from the rabbit hole they create. I find myself struggling many times with my twos homelessness. I can’t imagine the difficulty when the weather is so darn cold. I don’t know what it takes for them to change, rock bottom? I think they have gone to earths center, in my book. That said, [I]it is their choice to live as they do. [/I]It is sad, and frustrating.I find solace in giving it over to God and hoping that one day, they will find their true potential. That doesn’t mean I don’t have my hard times, dealing with the pain of it all. But, living with them coming in and out the old revolving door, is not an option. They would rip my heart out given the chance. Not going there again. Stay strong and keep building yourself up. We have absolutely no control over the choices and resulting consequences, but we are able to keep boundaries on what we allow within our hearts and homes. Take care, (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
