[QUOTE="Wendy23, post: 733438, member: 17731"] Thank you Acacia. I too believe my enabling goes back to my childhood. My father was an alcoholic and my mother was an enabler. I grew up learning how to put on an appearance that everything was fine to the outside world and never felt as good as others. I learned not to discuss family issues outside of the family. Then when my son started giving me problems, I tried to keep it a secret and deal with it myself. All of you have been so kind to respond today. It gives me hope! I know it will not be easy but I plan on stopping the flow of money and putting value of myself and my needs. [/QUOTE]
