[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 687908, member: 18958"] RN. That is what we have done with my own son. M is handling him most of the time but is burning out. You did not ask me but I believe your son has shown that he can handle himself and live independently. I believe that even though your husband is less emotional your son will still try to manage and outdo him. It confuses things. Would you be willing to let him be? You have paid for the sober living for a certain period and let him do the rest? Finding an apartment. Going to AA or NA meetings as he chooses. Going to school, if he wants. Working. If this making distance is hard for you, why? What about it do you feel is wrong or difficult and why? [/QUOTE]
