[QUOTE="catwoman, post: 11391, member: 1574"] Sue, I understand your fears, but as hard as it is you need to LET GO. If she has to get a job why are YOU looking in the want ads? If she chooses to "take the jail time" will you let her? I know I wouldn't have. I talked a good game but my difficult child knew that I worried too much about him to let that happen. As his mother I always saw him as the victim. When I was finally forced to let him go, stopped bailing him out of every mess he got into and face ALL the consequences of his actions he came through just fine. It wasn't easy, he was 16 at the the time and he is still very angry with me, but he's clean, sober and working. I don't mean to sound hard or judgmental, I just know how hard it is. [/QUOTE]
