[QUOTE="buddy, post: 524342, member: 12886"] I was thinking the same. Well done in a situation where I would be tempted to go off...he is being so manipulative but of course yelling and going off on him is not going to get anyone anywhere. I also think the email thing is controlling and cold ...BUT, the thing is, you have proof of your words and he can't twist anything when you show professionals who say you should have done differently or that he has no where to live because you kicked him out or anything like that. In the end it probably protects you and will bite him in the behind. You are doing well in a really tricky situation. I am sure your great kid is still there, he is just really going through something and some of us need to learn the hard way....darn that it takes others down to some degree in the process. You and husband both have really stepped up and he is a lucky lucky boy. [/QUOTE]
