[QUOTE="B&A, post: 759643, member: 26653"] Thank you. I have read the detachment article which is very good and will reread it a lot. As far as I know has not used drugs and has not drank for Many years. He passes drug tests for never ending jobs he can't keep and I see no signs of alcohol use. He does however behave as if he were an addict in that he is very irresponsible, self consumed, unreliable and he has a hair trigger temper. I would like to give just two of hundreds of incidents as an example. He said he wanted us to give him one if our vehicles as it was "Not Fair" that we had three cars here with just me and my husband. When I advised him we would not ever be giving him another vehicle (been there and been burned more than once before) and he would need to figure out how to get one himself or use public transportation he became VERY angry. Last week he was here being "paid a fair wage" to put in a hardwood floor as we have told him he will never again be given money unless he works for it and work is complete before paid for. He picked up his Dads cup of coffee instead of his own (which is mostly sugar and cream and a small drop of coffee), my husband simply said "that's my coffee you picked up". He slammed the cup down and yelled in the most hateful voice " I'M SORRY I TOOK YOUR G*#@ D#$%&m COFFEE DAD "!!!!! and stormed out of the room. We are continually shocked and saddened by how disrespectful he us to us. The only time we see the sweet and smiling boy we raised is if we give him what he wants. So we are dealing with his rage at us now and he is back behind bars for violation of probation. Don't know particulars of why as we haven't seen or heard from him since he left here Sunday after floors complete. Except for the six or eight calls from the prison yesterday that I didn't answer. So now I pray for strength to be able to stand up to him when that moment comes and let him walk to the nearest bridge to sleep under because at age 45 he yet again has no job, no car, and no roof. All that said I must assure everyone that I do love my son more than anything. [/QUOTE]
