[QUOTE="witzend, post: 334301, member: 99"] I would suggest to your husband that he is compounding the bad parenting by keeping his drunk unemployed 27 y/o son in the basement. This is not how a strong parent interacts with their 27 year old kids. It takes a lot more strength to walk away than it does to enable. Your husband needs to decide whether he is continuing to do a poor job and that's what he wants, or if he wants to commit to be a better parent. That will take some work. J's making the right noises. Come February, he'll sink back into his old ways. You drew the line in the sand, and he is trying to relocate it. [/QUOTE]
