[QUOTE="Skool Teacher, post: 692101, member: 20029"] Wow! Your situation is very similar to mine with my 21 year old daughter. I truly feel your pain and I'm wrestling with some of the same feelings but the blatant disrespect and her seeming to want to fight me pretty much did it for me. I can't do anything else but PRAY for her. They come through us but when they refuse to be responsible and respectful adults that's when we have to release them back to God. The hope is that they will eventually learn from their mistakes, make better decisions for their lives and go on and eventually become productive citizens and have decent lives. If that happens praise God but if it doesn't we have to learn to be ok with it no matter how hard it is because we can NOT live their lives for them. I'm learning this as I go and this is more difficult than raising her as a single mom ever was. Prayers for you and the tough decisions you have to make. Just know you are not alone. Sometimes this site is all I have when dealing with my feelings and decisions on dealing with my adult child. I'm thankful for you and others on this site for sharing and having a place to go for support. God's love and guidance will see you through. Give it and him up to God and pray without ceasing for your son's eventual deliverance. God works. Peace and blessings to you Lil in the days to come. [/QUOTE]
