[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 711108, member: 11832"] CableDawg, I know you still love her, but SWOT is right. When she is yelling at you about her son, she is not showing love for you. She is denying that he has a problem. He does have a problem; you know this. To her, you represent the voice of reason that she isn't ready to hear. If you look at my signature, you can see that my son has a lot of issues. My significant other (SO) is his step-father. When SO talks to me about my son, I listen. I don't yell at him. We try to find way to help my son. Ways to push him into adulthood which do not include giving him a credit card. We here are worried about the toll all of this is taking on YOU. Please find a way to educate yourself about your step-son's issues. Al-anon and NarcAnon are great ideas along with counseling. You will find others there who are dealing with the same issues, and you won't feel so alone. I'm sorry that your wife is not in a place in her own personal journey where she can hear the wisdom in your words. None of us knows what you can say to her to wake her up. Please protect yourself. Your stepson is only going to get worse. [/QUOTE]
