[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 746449, member: 1967"] Are you seeing the pattern here? He asked you to pay money for his sober living rent. You said no. He paid it himself. He asked you to cosign. You said no. He found a way to get the apartment on his own. There is a saying in AA/NA: Fake it till you make it. That applies to parents, too. You can do this. Stay strong. Elsi said: Elsi is exactly right. He is holding his sobriety over you as emotional blackmail. You are not responsible for his sobriety in any way. Just like you can't keep him sober, you can't cause his relapse. You have zero control of whether he drinks or uses drugs. Kathy [/QUOTE]
