[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 702214, member: 18516"] If your son brings up that he has "green light" on him again you can tell him what you shared with us here. Again, choices.... he made a choice to say no to protective custody. It's my guess that he will try and guilt you into bailing him out. I have learned from my own son and others here on this site just how creative our difficult children can be when they are "desperate" for help. My son once told me he had a huge gash in his leg and that he would probably bleed to death. I told him he needed to go to the ER. The very next day he posted on Facebook that he was going for a long hike in the mountains. [I]It's a miracle that his leg healed. [/I] When we start sending a different message to our difficult children, a message that we will no longer be their doormat, we will no longer bail them out, we no longer let them mooch of us - living in our homes, eating our food, never helping out, etc......., when they see they can no longer manipulate us into to doing what they want, they will ramp it up. Be on your guard. Be prepared for your son to tell you horror stories of what will happen if you don't help him. Stand strong! If you feel you are weakening, think of us here, all of us warrior parents surrounding you with our strength. You will get through this. [/QUOTE]
