[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 738736, member: 15801"] I am so sorry Copa for your heartache. You have loved and do love your son so much.... and you absolutely have to protect yourself. It sounds like you had to stop having contact with him for your own safety. If I was in that situation with my son I would do the same thing. I am not afraid fo my son. When he is really using I do not like him at all, because he is a total jerk to us. And I dont think I will ever let him live with me again because he has stolen from us and I dont know if I would ever trust him. I do think there is a difference between setting boundaries and having no contact because of your own mental and physical safety.... and setting boundaries to try and get them to change. I think the two can get confused sometimes. One thing I have learned is that I have no control over my son or the outcome. I think you are very clear in your boundaries and they totally make sense to me, And it is heartbreaking that you have to do that. [/QUOTE]
