[QUOTE="Beta, post: 756792, member: 22597"] Welcome John. I can only echo what has already been said, including how sorry I am for what you and your wife are going through. I too have read the book, "When Our Grown Kids Disappoint Us." I found it to be helpful in the sense that it confirmed that there are many, many parents like us out there who have been good parents but who have kids that are dysfunctional. I found the book to be long on empathy and short on practical helps. "Co-Dependent No More" is a good book. Alison Botke has also written a book about her experiences with her son, called "Setting Boundaries With Your Adult Children." Keep posting; it really does help to do that. [/QUOTE]
