Lil,
I'm not criticizing you. I'm hoping you can see new ways of disengaging that might be healthy for you and Jabber, and might leave your son to figure things out himself.

You are trying to help your son by explaining, by softening the blow of rejection. By buying food. By buying a book.
All these things soften the fact that he exploded at his elderly grandparents and that a lot of caring adults felt obliged to remove him as fast as possible once they had a chance to think about it. He did that. He set up that situation.
I don't have the answers Lil, I don't.
But that is what I meant when I said you were buffering. I hope that helps.
